The flame heat is absorbed inside a metallic mesh element.<br \/>\nThe overall dimensions and passage sizes of this element are determined based on factors such as gas composition, temperature, and allowable pressure drop across the device.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.6; margin: 20px 0;\"><strong>Flame Arrester Operation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The function of flame arresters in limiting the flame and preventing explosive propagation has made this device a crucial safety component with diverse applications such as:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"line-height: 1.7; margin-bottom: 16px;\">\n<li>Ventilation of storage tanks<\/li>\n<li>Natural gas and fuel supply\/transfer lines<\/li>\n<li>Industrial burner chimneys<\/li>\n<li>Combustible vapor recovery<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img

\/><\/p>\n<p>In addition to preventing flame passage, the flame arrester also prevents the entry of particles and insects into the storage tank.<br \/>\nThe design of the metallic mesh of the flame arrester is such that it effectively resists external impacts and does not deform under exposure to advancing flames or explosion pressure.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 18px; line-height: 1.6; margin:
