Standard product features

Features:

  • ATEX Compliant , field testable explosion venting panels.
  • The release mechanism is factory calibrated for release at very low pressures (24.41 kg/m2).
  • Panels remain closed until an event occurs.
  • The panels are lightweight and release quickly during an explosion.
  • Once the pressure of an explosion has been relieved, the panel returns to a near closed position, allowing air to return into the room to address implosion concerns.

Note: If there is insufficient wall area to site the vent panels, additional explosion relief can be achieved by utilizing CS Explovent® XRV Roof Vents.
