GT Bursting DISC

Bursting discs are devices installed in the chemical processes to protect lines and equipment against over or underpressure.

Specifics

• It reacts to the excess pressure without inertia, making the opening immediately free for discharge of the pressure.
• When working with corrosive fluids, there is no corrosion or efficiency loss throughout time.
• Pressure safety valves might get corroded and lose efficiency and reliability throughout time.
• Bursting discs are significantly smaller than safety valves.
• It can be mounted in every position.
• Differently from safety valve it can also protect from depression.
• Differently from safety valve it does not require periodical checks for the calibration.
• It has a high availability of diameters.
• The costs for a bursting disc are lower than those for a safety valve.
• There are no leakages during operation.
• Extremely reliable
