GatEx - active explosion isolation system

Optimal solution for cutting off an explosion in an air duct

Due to the high response speed of the gate, the system effectively isolates explosions in pneumatic transport.

Active explosion isolation system

GatEx is an effective solution for explosion isolation in pneumatic transport systems. In the event of an explosion, the GatEx gate valve closes and isolates the explosion to one piece of process equipment, protecting adjacent equipment from the spread of flame and explosion pressure that could lead to explosion chain reactions. The system is characterized by an extremely fast action of the valve, which closes in milliseconds. Suitable for explosion protection of systems designed for maximum explosion pressure (Pmax).

Benefits:

  • Suitable for pipelines up to DN 50
  • Maximum operating pressure up to 21 bar
  • Close in milliseconds
  • Short installation distance

For protection:

  • Dust filters
  • Industrial vacuum cleaners
  • Cyclones
  • Pneumatic transport

Operating principle of the GatEx insulation system

The operating principle of the GatEx gate valve explosion isolation system is to detect an explosion early thanks to a sensor sending a signal to the controller, the controller evaluates the information from the sensor and the active valve completely shuts off the duct.

CONEX

The ConEx controller receives, evaluates and records information from sensors, and when an explosion is detected, it sends a signal to activate the gate. For personnel it acts as a user interface for the ability to configure and assess the status of the system.

LumEx / DetEx

The GatEx system has two explosion detection sensor options: DetEx pressure sensor and LumEx optical sensor. The sensor takes readings in real time and sends them to the controller. The pressure sensor is equipped with two reading heads, and the optical sensor operates only in the infrared range, which helps protect the explosion suppression system from false alarms.

Diaphragm rupture sensor G

A big advantage of the GatEx explosion isolation system is the ability to operate from a membrane rupture sensor, which can significantly reduce the cost of the system.

Gate GatEx

The main component of the explosion isolation system is the GatEx gate. If an explosion is detected, the ConEx controller activates a damper, which closes the air duct in milliseconds, isolating the spread of the explosion.
