BRILEX is specialised in the production and sales of explosion venting and isolation equipment.

BRILEX Gesellschaft für Explosionsschutz mbH was established in Brilon in November 1993.It erected its own first building, which helped considerably increase production, in 1996. Today, after two extensions to the premises, the Company now has around 5000 m2 of office, production and warehouse space at its disposal. BRILEX is currently staffed by 15 employees.

International contacts, created shortly after the company was founded, led to the first sales agencies being established in other countries. The international network has continued to grow since then and has resulted in the Company having to quickly and efficiently adapt to new markets, which it has been able to do with the help of its development and production departments.

BRILEX products are protective systems that safeguard production processes all over the world from the destructive power of dust explosions. The manufacture of such sensitive systems require production processes that both comply with international standards and directives and that meet the requirements set out by several different quality assurance systems. Many of the Company's explosion vents and flameless pressure relief systems have been awarded international patents.

The Company is currently working on bidirectional decouplingsystems that deliver considerable flow benefits over conventionalunits.

BRILEX is a leading manufacturer with its unique patented explosion vent delivering 100% pressure relief capacity and its flameless relief systems utilising replacement sets that allow them to be reused after explosions.

More than 20 years of experience in the field of safety engineering has allowed the Company to specialise in the provision of protection against dust explosions. As an innovativeand reliable partner, BRILEX protects its customers all over the world from the effects of dust and gas explosions. We see ourselves as a partner to our customers and we guarantee to satisfy their needs with advice, quality and reliable deliveries.

BRILEX Explosion VentsBRILEX Explosion Vents combine safety and shorter opening times. The light-weight and simple construction guarantees a quick and safe opening of the vent. The higher service life enables their use under the hardest conditions. This can be as high as a "sixty-fold" benefit compared to traditional triple section designs that are now "out-of-date".

Dust Explosion VentingVenting of dust explosions has been practiced for more than 50 years and provides the best protection for facilities where dust explosions can occur. When specifying explosion vents, the immense impact of pressure waves and flame propagation in the outside area need to be considered. Explosion relief must therefore be directed to a safe area.

GeneralBRILEX Explosion Vents are specially designed for relief of dust explosions. By early relief of an incipient explosion, BRILEX Explosion Vents protect people and industry worldwide.

Designs and ApplicationsBRILEX provides the appropriate explosion vent depending on the application. The wide range of vents available is dividedinto three standard types that can be adapted for the customer's specific requirements.

Filter installations with pneumatic cleaning systems and a very high vacuum operation require an explosion vent that withstands vacuum and positive pressure cycling for a long time. For such requirements the BRILEX-GE is the best choice. Its domed design enables negative pressure resistance without the need for an extra vacuum support.Standard GE features are pressure spike control and integrated flange gaskets.

If the negative pressure is not greater than 60% of the rated rupture pressure, installation of a domed vent has no extra benefit. For this application the KE is an alternative to the domed GE. The BRILEX - KE provides long durability and aerodynamic advantages compared to the domed type, for example in cyclones. Pressure spike control, integrated flange gaskets, cross rib and folded edges are standard KE design features.

GasketsAll vents are supplied with "factory-installed" integrated flange gaskets. The standard material is EPDM and can be used from -40 °C to +120 °C. As an alternative the following standard materials are available:

White Silicone -50 °C to +200 °CKlinger -100 °C to +400 °CCeramic -100°C to +900 °COther materials can be supplied on request.

InsulationInsulation consists of a fire-proof mineral wool according to DIN 1259. The insulation is directly mounted to the "vent-side" of the explosion vent and is protected by a light-weight aluminium cover with a water-tight seal. It is secured to the disc to prevent it from flying away during venting. BRILEX insulation does not have any affect on the venting relief capability or efficiency. This has been proved by notified bodies in many dynamic explosion tests. Optional insulation thickness can be supplied to meet the customer's specifications.

Mounting FramesThe necessary outlet flange for types GE / KE can also be supplied. The following material is available: Zinc plated carbon steel or stainless steel.

Burst SensorTo monitor an installation a burst sensor type SE can be installed. The sensor signals the opening of the explosion vent so that equipment such as fans or rotary valves can be switched off. SE sensors are installed separately and just above the explosion vent. This enables SE sensors to be easily adapted to existing installations. They are also suitable for the food industry.

Indoor Explosion VentingBy using BRILEX Explosion Vents in combination with a unique BRILEX Ceramic Filter, economical venting of dust explosions is possible. When the vent opens during an explosion, the ceramic filter retains the dust and cools down the hot gases.

ApplicationsDue to high investigation costs and bad efficiency, design engineers and end users tried to find alternatives. The BRILEX IndoorVent offers a combination of a fast opening BRILEX Explosion Vent with a high efficient ceramic filter. The vent area of the IndoorVent is greater than the vent areas of existing quench pipes. After an explosion the IndoorVent can be re-used. The result is a cost effective solution for plant designers and end users for all industries.

ParametersThe BRILEX IndoorVent can be used for reduced explosion pressures (P red) between 0.2 to 1.5 bar g and K st values up to 250 bar m/sec.

Delivered ProductsBRILEX delivers complete units consisting of the IndoorVent and a pre-installed BRILEX explosion vent including integrated flange gaskets and monitoring sensor. A spare parts kit for immediate use after an explosion consisting of explosion vent and filter cartridges.

After an ExplosionTimes have changed since explosion quenching systems had to be thrown into the waste bin after single use. The BRILEX IndoorVent can be re-used after changing the filter cartridges and the explosion vent. Maintenance time of approximately 30 minutes is only needed before it can be used again. BRILEX guarantees this after each dust explosion.

Explosion Isolation Valves BPF-M and RSK In event of a dust explosion in a filter/dust collector, the explosion can travel back via the inlet ductwork to connected machinery or other plant equipment. Should an explosion be allowed to travel back to the plant, the explosion will gain significan speed and will cause catastrophic damage and can be life threatening to personal in the plant.Ignition sources such as ember or sparks can be produced by process machinery and then be transported to filters. Filters canproduce optimum conditions for dust explosions. The likelihood of an ignition source together with an optimum airborne dustconcentration characterises filters / dust collectors as high-risk zones for dust explosions to occur.

Correctly designed and certified Explosion Vents in filters will protect their integrity, however an un-isolated filter inlet duct will allow a high-risk hazard to propagate back to the rest of the plant. Plant managers concerned about occupational Health and Safety as well as plant protection now have a cost effective opportunity for explosion isolation of filters compared to other products such as chemical suppression barriers, diverters and knife gate valves. With certified BRILEX Isolation Valves it is now possible to isolate filters and run the plant economically. Available sizes: DN 160 - DN 1000.

BRILEX - Explosion Diverter REXSExplosion diverters were probably the first method employed to decouple dust explosions. The advantage of this method was always that it provided protection in both directions as it allowed pressure to be reliably decoupled at the explosion diverter,irrespective of whether the explosions came from the extractor or filter sides.

But the method wasn't very effective when it came to the suppression of flames, and spreading flames facilitate the propagation of explosions and often cause serious damage. The method also produces massive pressure losses in the affected systems, which also severely restricts the widespread use of such diverters.

But DIN EN 16020:2011 has now created a way of using explosion diverters safely. The testing procedures that it specifies with the design regulations and the detailed catalogue of requirements that it contains clearly set out the demands that such diverters must satisfy, if they are to be used in protective systems.

But what can the standard deliver when massive losses of pressure in this "pipe in pipe" system put the cost-effectiveness of such diverters into question? Classical geometries defined in the standard produce pressure losses of up to 1500 PA, which would require huge additional fan performance to compensate.

However, new flow-simulation programs now make it possible to reduce pressure losses with standard-compliant designs by over 60% to 550 Pa.

This means that, technically, the loss of pressure has been reduced to the levels that can be achieved with non-return valves – which for many years have been broadly accepted as cost-effective decoupling systems.

Explosion diverters may also be employed to provide cost-effective bidirectional safety and protection.

It's important for explosion diverters that the mechanical integrity of the fitted explosion vent has been certified accordingly. The explosion vent must be able to withstand the extreme conditions caused by the progress of the explosion in the explosion diverter. BRILEX - GE, a rectangular explosion vent with specially shaped curvature that is resistant to vacuums and therefore delivers sufficient stability, is suitable for such applications. The explosion vent withstands severe pressure cycles without limit while providing reliable protection.
