Flame arrester capable of monitoring flame retarding condition
Technical Field
The invention relates to a flame arrester capable of monitoring fire-retarding condition.
Background
Flame arresters are devices for preventing the propagation of flames of flammable gases and flammable liquids, typically mounted on ports or ducts of the device, which function to allow the passage of a medium, but must be able to extinguish the flames. The key point of the flame arrester is a flame arrester element, the principle of extinguishing flame is that the flame temperature is rapidly reduced mainly through a heat transfer effect, and meanwhile, the concentration of active free radicals in the flame is reduced through a wall effect, so that chemical reaction in the flame is slowed down until stopping, and the flame is prevented from spreading. The existing flame arresters are made of stainless steel and have porous structures, and when flame passes through the stainless steel holes, the flame temperature is reduced.
The current flame arresters have the following problems in the use process: whether flame propagates to the working condition of flame arrester can not be known to just also can't carry out real-time supervision to the operational environment that flame arrester was located, can't eliminate in time probably causes the dangerous environment of deflagration or detonation in the pipeline.
A pipeline fire arrestor of CN 204469063 application adopts a fire-blocking core structure, and has no function of monitoring fire-blocking condition. Whether the flame propagation process occurs in the environment where the flame arrester is located cannot be known and known in time, even if the flame arrester can successfully prevent the occurrence of a certain deflagration or detonation process, related personnel cannot be reminded to analyze the reasons for the occurrence of deflagration and detonation, and hidden danger is eliminated in time.
