- Flo-Tel and Vent-Tel: reusable, non-invasive burst detection, Vent-Tel for tri-clamp and other sanitary connections
Tank venting and flame arrestors (Protectoseal)
- Pressure / Vacuum Conservation Vents to reduce evaporation of tank contents to atmosphere, factory set to your specifications, weight or spring loaded pallet assemblies that reseal automatically; End-of-Line, Pipe-Away and In-Line designs
- Emergency Vents to prevent the catastrophic rupture of a storage tank by relieving the internal pressure accumulation caused by external fire, including manhole cover, hinged and spring loaded designs and PIN TECH bubble tight (<500 ppm) pressure relief vents
- In-line and end-of-line flame and detonation arrestors, and conservation vents with integral flame arrestor
Tank blanketing
Blanketing Valves sense the pressure in a tank's vapor space and regulate a supply of pressurized inert gas into the tank so that a desired pressure range may be consistently maintained. Induchem offer a range of tank-blanketing options for a wide variety of industries in three categories:
- Industrial (Jordan Valve Mk508, Mk518, Mk608, Mk695): rugged, heavy-duty, all standard threaded and flanged connections, inlet pressures up to 150 psi (10 bar), completely self-operated, ANSI Class VI shutoff
- High capacity (Protectoseal Series 10, 20, 30 pilot and spring operated)
- Hygienic (Steriflow Mk908, Mk908X, Mk958, Mk968) for sanitary vessels in stainless steel and single use systems
Pressure safety relief valves (Leser)
Pressure relief valves are a safety device used to control or limit pressure within a vessel or system; Induchem can assist with sizing and selection.
- Direct and spring loaded; semi and full nozzle (API 526)
- Certified acc. to DIN EN ISO 4126-1, VdTÜV, TRD 421/721, ASME code II and IV
- Opening pressure max 1.1 x set pressure; extended lifetime with KTL coated springs
- Clean Service range for food, beverage and pharmaceutical to DIN 11866 and ASME BPE
In-situ testing, repair, overhaul and certification of safety and relief valves (On Site Services) and closed-loop breather valve testing (Ventless Breather Valve Testing) are listed as separate services.
