VAREC 000/00 SERIES FLAME ARRESTERS Group D end-of-line flame arresters with a unique extensible bank frame designed to stop the propagation of flame from external sources FEATURES 00 SERIES -

Net free area through banks three to four times the unit pipe size, resulting in increased flow capacity with minimal pressure drop. Bank s large surface area improves heat dissipation.

1 VAREC 000/00 SERIES FLAME ARRESTERS Group D end-of-line flame arresters with a unique extensible bank frame designed to stop the propagation of flame from external sources FEATURES 00 SERIES - HORIZONTAL 000 SERIES - VERTICAL Models available for vertical or horizontal configurations. Heavy wall cast housing in T aluminum, carbon steel or stainless steel. Net free area through banks three to four times the unit pipe size, resulting in increased flow capacity with minimal pressure drop. Bank s large surface area improves heat dissipation. Removable cover plate and extensible bank assembly for easy inspection, cleaning or replacement. Unitized housing does not require support for proper bank alignment during maintenance. Off-set housing design ensures flow capacity unaffected by condensate accumulation, even when installed in horizontal piping. 00 Series ½ NPT drain plug at the low point is located conveniently for routine draining*. UL approved**. GENERAL APPLICATION The 000 and 00 Series, Group D, end-ofline flame arresters are used in gas piping systems, petroleum storage tank roofs and digester covers to prevent the propagation of a flame into the system. TECHNICAL DATA Materials: Sizes: Connections: Pressure rating: Aluminum, carbon steel, stainless steel to (0 to 00 mm) Drilled flanges To 0 psi (0. bar) * A Varec drip trap should be specified for field installation at this connection to provide for safe removal of condensate. ** For approved sizes please see page.

VAREC 000/00 SERIES FLAME ARRESTERS SPECIFICATIONS MODELS OVERVIEW EXTENSIBLE ALUMINUM BANK FRAME 000 and 00 Series flame arresters stop the propagation of a flame by absorbing and dissipating heat

Heat is absorbed, lowering the temperature of the gas below its ignition point and quenching the flame. 000 Series is for vertical installation; 00 Series is for horizontal or vertical installation.

2 VAREC 000/00 SERIES FLAME ARRESTERS SPECIFICATIONS MODELS OVERVIEW EXTENSIBLE ALUMINUM BANK FRAME 000 and 00 Series flame arresters stop the propagation of a flame by absorbing and dissipating heat through the surface area of the bank sheets. Ignited vapor attempting to pass through the arrester is forced through small passages within the bank assembly. Heat is absorbed, lowering the temperature of the gas below its ignition point and quenching the flame. 000 Series is for vertical installation; 00 Series is for horizontal or vertical installation. They can be mounted up to feet (. m) upstream of the ignition source in accordance with UL approval, or 0 pipe diameters in accordance with FM approval requirements. Sizes ", ", ", ", ", 0" and " Connections Aluminum drilled to ANSI Class 0 dimensions, flat face flange. Carbon steel and stainless steel drilled to ANSI Class 0 dimensions, raised face flange. Special drilling of flange connections to DIN, JPI or JIS standards available upon request. Consult your local sales representative for further details. Closed Pressure rating Leak proof to 0 psi (.0 kpa), standard. Higher ratings available: consult sales. Pressure drop Should not exceed psi (. kpa). Location [] Within feet (. m) upstream of flame source. Configuration Net free area Three to four times the corresponding size standard pipe. Bank assembly Extensible aluminum bank frame with corrugated rectangular shaped bank sheets. Fixed stainless steel bank frame. Provision for draining 000 Series self draining. 00 Series includes ½" NPT connection at low point. Open Housing materials - T low copper aluminum - standard. Carbon steel (ASTM A grade WCB) - optional. stainless steel - optional. Bank assembly material Low copper aluminum extensible frame with aluminum bank sheets - standard. Low copper aluminum extensible frame with stainless steel bank sheets - optional. All stainless steel fixed frame with stainless steel bank sheets - optional (available with carbon steel or stainless steel housing only). Approvals 000 Series UL (Underwriters Laboratories) listed in all aluminum construction with extensible bank assembly in ", ", ", " and 0" sizes []. 00 Series UL listed in all aluminum construction as above in ", " and " sizes []. NOTE. For use on hydrocarbon storage tanks, installed NOT MORE THAN FEET from the open end of the vent pipe. These test conditions may not represent the actual service conditions of piping system design. It is recommended that the arrester be independently tested under actual service conditions before installation.
