If you’re involved with a facility where potentially explosive atmospheres, materials or processes exist, you know that it’s critical for your pressure venting system to function according to its design parameters.

CS Explovent® panels are precisely calibrated at the factory to open at predetermined pressures, thereby avoiding catastrophic damage.

Wall panels can be field tested for an initial non-destructive verification, or at any time as part of an ongoing safety programme.

Introduction to CS Explovent

 

Explovent Wall Panels vs Blowout Sidings

Explovent Wall Panels

  • Explovent is the only venting system that can be tested at any time to periodically verify working conditions.
  • Explovent is re-settable after testing and does not need to be replaced after usage.
  • Explovent arrives on-site fully calibrated—ready to install.
  • Explovent can be installed quickly and easily to save on labor costs.
  • Explovent is lightweight and engineered in accordance with NFPA 68 code and OSHA guidelines.
  • Explovent can be tested at any time to ensure that panels are functioning as intended.
  • Explovent provides venting solutions for either wall or rooftop installation; as well as a range of natural day lighting options.
  • Explovent has Factory Mutual (FM) and ATEX approved models.
  • CS has over 35 years of experience in specialty venting and is recognised as the leader in providing complete, code-compliant solutions.

Blowout Sidings

  • Blowout siding cannot be field tested to verify working conditions outside of an explosion.
  • Blowout siding can only be used once, and must be replaced after opened.
  • Blowout siding employs shear bolts and fasteners and thus is highly dependent on proper installation by site laborers.
  • Blowout siding requires timely on site-engineering before installations.
  • Blowout siding systems are typically larger and heavier than NFPA standards recommend.
  • Independent contractors lack the technical expertise and experience seen with CS’ team of professionals.
  • Without the availability for testing, blowout siding can be extremely unreliable.
  • Siding can only be provided on walls, with many systems being unable to provide functional, aesthetic solutions.
  • Blowout siding systems cannot be non-destructively tested and are often not labeled. How can you tell that they work?

Wall Explosion Vents

Explovent® explosion venting wall panels are designed to be the weakest part of a building's external structure, releasing dangerous over pressures.

Roof Explosion Vents

Roof Explosion Vents are designed for buildings where the exterior wall area is insufficient or obstructed, but explosion venting is still required.

Store Medical Gas Bottles Safely

Storing medical gases safely and securely can be challenging, with a raft of legislation governing how theyshould be kept and the required safety measures.

Explovent®

If your facility is one where potentially explosive atmospheres, materials or processes exist, you know that it is critical for your building's pressure venting system to perform according to its design parameters as a means of limiting damage in the event of an explosion.

With CS Explovent you can field test the release parameters for the explosion vent panel at any time.
