Explosion Isolation

Mechanical Explosion Isolation:
Involves the use of uniquely designed mechanical valves which provide an actual physical barrier, designed to close within milliseconds of detecting an explosion. Fike's isolation valves prevent the spread of flames and pressure (in both directions), effectively preventing an explosion from moving through your process piping or ductwork. Fike explosion isolation valves are one of the fastest, most effective forms of explosion protection available on the market.

Chemical Explosion Isolation:
Achieved through a rapid discharge of a chemical explosion suppressant to prevent the flame from continuing through to other areas of your process system. An explosion detector initiates the release of the extinguishing agent when it detects a deflagration pressure or flame front -- preventing the propagation of flame and burning materials.

Explosion Suppression

Fike Explosion Suppression systems are designed to detect and chemically suppress an explosion in its earliest stages-before an explosion can cause a disaster or become catastrophic. While unsuppressed explosion pressures reach dangerous levels in less than 50 milliseconds, Fike's unique technology can detect and respond in less than 1 millisecond - averting a catastrophe!

Explosion Protection Detection & Control

EPACO^® by Fike represents the most advanced safety technology available in today's explosion protection market. EPACO is pre-configured to recognize danger signs and make important decisions about when to activate explosion isolation and/or explosion suppression systems, effectively preventing an explosion from damaging your equipment and facility. With EPACO in place, your employees don't have to search your facility for signs of a problem. EPACO not only tells you where the trouble is, it also tells you what the problem is and when it happened. Fike explosion protection puts you in complete control.
