Explosion Proof Flexible Coupling



What is the Explosion Proof Flexible Coupling?

 

Explosion proof flexible coupling is usually used in hazardous areas. The two ends of the explosion proof flexible coupling are composed of metal material such as carbon steel or stainless steel electroplated explosion proof joint and connecting pipe. Both ends of the joints are metal threaded live joints. The connecting pipe is composed of an explosion-proof sheath and an inner pipe, and the inner pipe is composed of a corrugated pipe or a metal hose.

 

The Principle of Explosion Proof Flexible Coupling

 

When the explosion proof flexible coupling and the connected flameproof instrument flammable gas deflagration, part of the deflagration energy (heat and pressure) can be absorbed by the explosion proof flexible coupling, and part of the pressure is released to the outside world and the threading pipe through the joint. The medium heat energy is further absorbed by the joint metal. Finally, the goal of not igniting (detonating) external combustible gas is achieved.

The gaskets and joints of explosion proof flexible coupling are all metal, and their connection is breathable, which is for the purpose of discharge and absorption.

 

 

Advantages of Explosion Proof Flexible Coupling

1. The explosion proof flexible coupling has a long service life. Because of its special material, it is very wear-resistant and has a strong anti-corrosion function, which can prolong its life.

 

2. The biggest advantage of explosion proof flexible coupling is that it has water-proof and flame-proof performance. During the course of the ship, the explosion proof flexible coupling can play a very good waterproof effect.

 

3. Explosion proof flexible coupling In addition to flame retardant, water and dust resistance, it has good explosion-proof flexibility and strong performance and corrosion resistance.

We all know that when oil-powered equipment is in operation, it will generate heat and cause chemical combustion, but the explosion-proof flexible connecting pipe can prevent or block it well.

 

4. The explosion proof flexible coupling is easy to cut and use. It does not require special processing and can be tailored arbitrarily according to requirements.

 

 

The Application of Explosion Proof Flexible Coupling

The role of explosion proof flexible coupling is also obvious. It is suitable for cable threading protection and used as an explosion-proof protection tube for wiring in flammable and explosive areas. Explosion proof flexible coupling is suitable for coking plants, chemical plants, pharmaceutical plants, gas stations, gas stations, oil refineries, hospitals, etc.

 

1. Applicable to hazardous locations in Zone 1 and Zone 2;

 

2. Applicable to explosive gas environment of ⅡA and ⅡB;

 

3. Applicable to areas 20, 21 and 22 of combustible dust environment;

 

4. Suitable for explosive gas mixing temperature: T1~T4;

 

5. It is widely used in dangerous environments such as petroleum exploration, oil refining, chemical industry, military industry, and dangerous places such as offshore oil platforms and tankers, and used for scene lighting.
