Burst Sensor features re-useable design.
Press Release Summary:
BA Series rupture disk burst sensor is actuated when one end of 316 stainless steel conductor is pulled from retaining slot. It operates at pressures as low as 1 psi and works in conjunction with rupture disks or relief valves. Suited for use in temperatures up to 700°F, sensor is offered in sizes from 1-24 in. and includes non-asbestos gaskets, 316 stainless steel ID tag, and moisture- and abrasion-resistant connector with 2-pin bullet terminal.
Original Press Release:
Burst Sensor Features Re-Useable Design
The BA Series, a rupture disk burst sensor that operates at low pressures and works in conjunction with rupture disks or relief valves, is now available from ZOOK. The sensor is actuated when one end of its 316 stainless steel conductor is pulled from a retaining slot. After actuation, plant personnel simply re-insert the conductor into the slot, allowing the sensor to be used again.
The sensor is compatible with the ZOOK ZM2 Alarm Monitor or virtually any DCS system. It operates at pressures as low as 1 PSI and temperatures up to 700 degrees F. Sizes range from 1" to 24".
Easy to install, the BA Series requires minimal flange face-to-face clearance and fits easily into existing pipe systems.
Other components of the BA Series include non-asbestos gaskets, a 316 stainless steel identification tag and a moisture- and abrasion-resistant connector with a two-pin bullet terminal.
Options include the LD Leak Detector, a TFE membrane that fits between the rupture disk and the sensor and can detect leakage in the disk or valve.
ZOOK is a leading supplier of products that protect manufacturing and process systems from the effects of overpressurization. In addition to rupture disk indicators, the company also manufactures metal and graphite rupture disks, explosion vent panels, burst sensors, and alarm monitoring systems.
