Vent Panels

The vent panels are designed to open at a predetermined pressure to release the explosion overpressure to a safe area without fragment emission, thus preventing the design strength of the vessel from being exceeded.

The most suitable type of venting panel will be determined by the process conditions:

• The BRP, BCP and BTP flat vent panels They are suitable for atmospheric applications that work with zero or very low vacuum and without pulsating pressures, such as silos with mechanical filling or bucket elevators.
• The BRD and BCD single-layer domed vent panels They are suitable for vacuum pressure and pulsating pressure applications, such as silos with pneumatic filling, suction filters or cyclones.
• The BRDM multi-layer domed vent panels They are suitable for vacuum and high vacuum pressure applications, such as suction filters or cyclones.
• The BRS folded vent panels They are suitable for low vacuum pressure and pulsating pressure applications, such as silos with pneumatic filling, suction filters or cyclones.
• The BRH venting panels They have been designed for installation in battery rooms to relieve overpressure caused by explosions due to the emission of hydrogen gas.
