Mounted to the equipment in which the explosive event may occur, three pressure sensors respond to the early stages of the pressure wave that precedes the fireball in a deflagration. One of these pressure sensors is set low and provides early warning through the System Monitor of a process condition upset that may cause an unusually high system operating pressure; this is used to prevent system discharge due to non explosive process pressure excursions. When two of the three pressure sensors respond, the Isolation System is activated.<\/p>\n<p>Alternative IPD Isolation System activation can be accommodated.

When the Explosion Detector registers the presence of an event it sends an electrical signal directly to the isolation Cannon(s) installed on the equipment ductwork or piping causing the powder suppression agent (foodgrade sodium bicarbonate) to be energized and discharged. The Detector and Cannon are designed for operation in intrinsically safe electrical environments without need for costly explosion proof conduit.<\/p>\n<p>The System Monitor provides electrical power to the Detector and Cannon(s). External relays are activated when the Isolation System operates. These relays enable shut down of the protected equipment to end the supply of combustible material and to generate an alarm. The Power Supply provides connection to standard AC power and battery back up.<\/p>\n<p>Depending upon the application, the isolation Cannon size is selected from standard modules identified as 5, 10, 20, 40 and 60 lb. (2, 4, 8, 16, 24 Kg) capacity. Connection to the ducting or piping requires a simple adapter typically having a 45 degree angle to inject the powder into the flow of burning material.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2838,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"no-sidebar","site-content-layout":"plain-container","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"product_cat":[39],"product_tag":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/flow-force.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2607"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/flow-force.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/flow-force.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flow-force.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2607"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flow-force.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2838"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/flow-force.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2607"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flow-force.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=2607"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flow-force.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=2607"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
