Explosion Venting

Evacuation solutions for high-pressure, low-pressure and negative-pressure explosions

Craig Equipment uses Boss Products explosion venting solutions for high-pressure, low-pressure, and negative-pressure applications to evacuate pressure, flames, and dust.

Boss Explosion Venting

Boss Products explosion vent panels meet all the essential health and safety requirements for an explosive atmosphere. In case of an explosion, the explosion vents are designed to evacuate pressure, flames, and dusts, to a designated location away from people and equipment. A simple and efficient protection system, these highly rated explosion vents are made to resist depressions, pneumatic unclogging cycles, and can be used on silos, hoppers, filters, and cyclones.

VIGIFLAM Vi

The flameless explosion venting device VIGIFLAM Vi is designed in a rectangular shape and consists of three main components: the body, a metal filter composed of several layers to cool flames, and a new innovative explosion panel. This stainless steel membrane is weakened in the middle allowing to rupture when excessive overpressure occurs inside the enclosure intended to be protected.

The purpose of VIGIFLAM Vi is to neutralize the flame effects produced during an explosion, which would typically vent through a standard explosion panel. By containing the flames, it helps protect both people and property within a building or room.

VIGIFLAM Vi is specifically designed for conveyors – bucket, belt, chain, and screw conveyors – due to its compact and efficient design, making it suitable for protecting such equipment in industrial settings.

VIGISPACE Explosion Vent Deflector EV-VS

When an outdoor explosion occurs, explosion vents open and release the explosion flame and pressure wave into the environment.

The VIGISPACE Explosion Vent Deflector EV-VS limits the opening angle of the explosion vent and guides the explosion pressure wave, flames and heat into defined areas.

By decreasing the size of dangerous areas, the VIGISPACE helps to reduce the safety zone to a minimum and increases usable operating space while providing optimum protection against explosions.

VIGILEX® Flameless Explosion Vent

The VIGILEX® Flameless Explosion Vent are rectangular explosion devices that combine a standard explosion panel with added protection to prevent flame from entering the environment. The VIGILEX® Flameless Explosion Vent are certified to be suitable for indoor and outdoor applications.

The VIGILEX® Flameless Explosion Vent eliminate the need for costly heavy duty piping that is required for exterior venting when a vessel is installed within the workspace. The integral standard explosion panel bursts during the initial explosion phase. Immediately thereafter, the flame and burnt dust exit the vessel and is contained by the VIGILEX® Flameless Explosion Vent flame arrestor. All VIGILEX® Flameless Explosion Vent are designed with the ability to change the explosion panel without removing the flame arrestor assembly.
