The bursting disc is safety equipment that protects the installation from high pressure and temperature. The use of bursting discs is often preferred for a reliable installation environment. They can be used alone or with a safety valve to relieve pressure. The bursting disc, which can operate at extreme temperatures, performs perfectly at temperatures up to 1200 °C.
What is a Bursting disc?
The bursting disc is a safety device that reduces the pressure by bursting to protect the system from excessive pressure. Also known as a bursting disc, burst diaphragm, or pressure safety disc. It is used so that the equipment in the system is not damaged in sudden pressure increases. It is the most effective equipment in reducing pressure as it reacts quickly to pressure.
The bursting disc differs from other pressure-reducing valves in that it can operate smoothly at very high-temperature values. Having a leak-proof structure creates a safe installation environment. The use of a bursting disc is recommended for rapid response to pressure.
bursting Disc Working Principle
The bursting disc stabilizes the pressure within milliseconds when there is a sudden change in system pressure. There is a disposable membrane inside the bursting disc. The membrane burstings when an increase or decrease in system pressure is noticed. Thus, the pressure quickly reaches the desired value
What Does a bursting Disc Do?
The bursting disc allows controlling the pressure change very quickly. A bursting disc creates the same effect that other pressure solutions create in seconds or even minutes, in just milliseconds. Another advantage of the bursting disc is impermeability. It prevents fluid leakage in the system where it is used.
Where is the bursting disc used?
The bursting disc is used in many important areas. It is a very popular product as they are much less costly than safety valves. If there are situations where the safety valve could become inoperable, a bursting disc should be added to the process.
The usage areas of the bursting disc are as follows:
- Petrochemical
- Aviation
- Medicine
- Defense industry
- Nuclear
- Chemical
- Pharmaceutical industry
- Food industry
- Railroad
- Oil field
Types of bursting Discs
Since the bursting disc is an important piece of equipment in terms of safety, this product is needed in different processes. Therefore, many types of bursting discs are available. Types of bursting discs with different technical features have high user satisfaction.
The types of bursting discs produced by Ada Valve are as follows:
- Stainless steel
- PTFE
- Hastelloy
- Inconel
- Nickel
- Tantalum
To protect the lines from fluid pressure, a suitable bursting disc should be selected and mounted. It is essential for sectors that need to be given importance to safety, as they are products that work with high precision.
