    advice

    Bursting discs have successfully proventhemselves not only as passive high pres-sure, but as vacuum pressure protectionelements. In case of low pressure 15 psi( 0.5 bar acc. to PED), the metal andgraphite bursting discs meet their limits,also due to sensitivity. The graphite bur-sting disc has a further burden when itbursts as there is particle fragmentation.

    The utilization of the directives ASMESEC. VIII, Div. 1 provide the possibility to

    avoid expensive and returning inspecti-ons when either a pressure protection 15 psi (ASME) or 0.5 bar (PED) is instal-led.

    The team-play consisting of 35 years ofbursting disc experience, cooperationwith leading universities and the use ofmainframe computers led to a complete-ly new design of the bursting disc. Forthe first time imperfection technologywas successfully implemented for the

    opening of a bursting disc. Even withthis low bursting pressure, the largestventing areas can be achieved withoutfragmentation.

    Further advantages are its aseptic de-sign, vacuum resistance, pressure cycleresistance and a working area of up to96%. For the most common areas ofapplication, there are materials suchas 316 (L) and Hastelloy C276 availableon stock.

    The newest generation of bursting discIKB is supplied in a sandwich constructi-on. It is installed between all commonflange and pipe connections. The torquepressure on the flange bolts does not in-fluence the function of the bursting disc.

  • 6BT / ODV / STAR / VSI ...

    The STAR bursting disk has especiallybeen designed for higher response pres-sures.

    For all bursting disc types there aremany accessories available:

    signalling devices

    controllers

    weatherproof insulation IK or IADpreventing from reduced dewpoint or noise

    integrated heat insulations(up to 1,400 C / 2,552 F and more)

    sealings in all kind of qualities

    flanges, rings and frames

    Process bursting discs BT (bursting discwith tag plate) and BT-VSI (with integra-ted vacuum support) are used for medi-um to high burst pressures. Safe installa-tion in pipeline systems is ensured by me-ans of holder units. Working pressurecan go up to 70 % of the burst pressure(MAWP).

    Triple-section bursting discs ODV, etc.are utilised for low and medium pressu-res. They work up to 80 % of the burstpressure. Both types are suitable for ga-ses and liquids and resist vacuum in V-version. Triple-section bursting discs aremost commonly used for low burst pres-sures up to 1 bar. The extremely stable

    construction offers easy handling. TheF-version is installed between regularflanges, the FL-version between angularframes and rings. REMBE triple-sectionbursting discs guarantee unlimited life-time even under pulsation or changingpressure conditions.

    Bursting discholder unit

    IG

    The bursting disc holder unit IG has beendesigned for bursting discs with angularsealing surfaces, e. g. BT, BT-ODV, etc.The holder unit consists of an inlet andoutlet part. It can directly be installedbetween flanges.

    The bursting disc unit is installed bet-ween flanges. At the same time it dispo-ses of a sufficient leak-proof, even in ca-se of high pressures.

    The installation of the bursting disc inthe pipe system on site is considerablysimplified by pre-assembling it into theholder unit. In case of bursting the bur-sting disc is replaced. The holder unitcan be used again.

    The holder unit IG can be produced fromCarbon-Steel, Stainless Steel, Titanium,Nickel, Hastelloy, Inconel and other spe-cial materials. The selection of the mate-rials depending on the specification, thetemperature resp. corrosion resistance isindividually agreed with the customer.

    The installation is made (s. above) bet-ween flanges. This model range is avail-able for all kind of flanges (DIN / ANSI /JIS s. table). Seal faces and dimensionsof the holder units can be suited to allcurrent standards.

    Reverse buckling pin bursting disc

    In 1774 Leonard Euler developed theformula for buckling of pins. His aid washis knowledge of mathematics. In 1991REMBE introduced the patented reversebuckling pin bursting disc KUB. This ti-me, the aid was the most modern pro-duction technology which made it possi-ble to integrate the buckling pins direct-ly into the dome of the bursting disc.Computer controlled KUB productionenables 2 % bursting tolerance withthe most accurate response pressures.

    The process side consists of an integra-ted convex, smooth reverse sealing-membrane. Thus, the first essentials ofsterile, sanitary service are met. More-over, the sealing membrane protects thebuckling pin element from corrosion.Constant burst pressure and unlimitedservice lifetime are guaranteed.

    KUB bursting discs are fully torque in-dependent. Torque of the flange bolts isonly defined by the sealing and pressurerating requirements. The KUB can be in-stalled using the KUB holder unit or, atlow to medium pressures, directly bet-ween standard DIN or ANSI flanges wit-hout specially trained personell.Testingacc. to PED 97/23/EG-Modul B or ASMEguideline is part of everysupply.

    Eliminating downtimeStretching maintenance intervals

    The KUB-V-Series is the result of con-tinued research and development. Thebenefit the KUB-V-Series offers is assimple as ingenious: by putting the spa-ce between disc and safety valve slowlyunder pressure the valve can be checkedfor leakage or smooth performance. Thisunique durability against backpressureof the KUB-V-Series is achieved by mo-difying the proven double layer KUB

    design. It will never be obtained bysingle-layer or pre-weakened scoredbursting discs.

    Due to special reinforcements of the se-cond protecting layer the V-Series with-stands twice the pressure in reverse di-rection as it does in venting direction.Even after multiple valve-testing perfor-mance and durability of the burstingdisc remain unchanged. Single-layer orpre-weakened bursting discs will nevermeet these requirements.

    direction against inadmissible vacuum.Due to its construction the two-in-onebursting disc offers benefits like stabilityand robustness. It is maintenance-free,even at low response pressures.

    The ZW opens in both directions and isfragmentation-free. The bursting disc issuitable for liquid and gaseous media.

    Bursting disc with high gas tightness,e.g. for cryogenic systems

    Bursting disc for cryogenic applicationReverse acting bursting disc UKB-LSwith guaranteed helium tightness

    Compact bursting discs

    Special applications require special bur-sting discs. The UKB-LS meets critical fea-tures such as highly leakproofness (Heli-um), cleanroom demand, fully metal de-sign even at lowest burst pressures.Furthermore this vacuum resistant com-pact bursting disc distinguishes itself byhigh working pressure and back pressureresistance as well as by lowest toleran-ces. In addition to many standard sizesthe UKB-LS is manufactured to specificcustomers requirements.

    UKB-LS bursting discs are suited to appli-cations in the aerospace-, hydraulic, cryo-genic-, pharmaceutical- and medicaltechnology and there where compactpressure protection is requested combi-ned with the lowest possible weight andeasy handling.

    The compact bursting discs are absolutetightly welded via laser- or micro wel-ding with the respective swivel. Thegentle welding method provides anexcellent leakproofness even on thin-nest burst membranes. Installation is ef-fected torque independent and timesa-ving.

    For example, when ESA required a light-weight, easy to handle bursting disc pro-tecting a deep cold gas vessel they chosethe UKB-LS.

    Your benefits:

    maintenance-free

    easy installation

    unlimited lifetime

    Fibre optic signalling bursting disc FOS

    Bursting discsfor compressed air systems

    In case of a bursting disc response thenew fibre optic signalling bursting discgenerates an optical signal and takes itto the process monitoring unit via EMI(Electro Magnetic Interference) and highvoltage insensitive fibre optic cables forevaluation.

    In case of the signalling bursting discbeing set in motion, the luminous flux is

    interrupted due to the tear of the opti-cal fibre. The following FOA (fibre opticevaluation unit) immediately provides anelectrical signal for optical or acousticalert that can also be used for furtherdata processing. If necessary, several si-gnalling bursting discs can be intercon-nected, forming an optical chain, so thatonly one FOA is required for evaluation.

    BIRD with protection shield

    BIRD (Burst Indicator REMBE design) retrofitable

    A responded disc has to be detected eit-her it has opened fully or only lifted torelease little pressure or vacuum. Severalsystems with different methods of sig-nalling are available integrated andrefittable signalling units as well as se-parate ones.

    The basic principle is an intrinsically safelow voltage power circuit that is inter-rupted when the disc responds. The in-terruption is caused by tearing a smartwire or thin foil apart or breaking a spe-cial detection pin. This signal can be im-plemented into the local control panel,monitoring system or just trigger analert or alarm device. In connection withpurpose designed monitoring units andseparation amplifiers the use of such si-gnalling devices and membranes is suit-able for hazardous areas (Ex).

    REMBE signalling bursting discs can alsobe used to detect leakages, especially incombination with safety valves either infront of the valve or behind.
