In-Service Support

We can tailor reactive and planned maintenance services to suit your needs as a customer and the specification of your equipment. Typically with flame arresters, we would recommend periodic visual inspections and cleaning, with scheduled replacement of internal components. Any equipment which requires further work can be fully refurbished at our premises. We provide this service for all makes of equipment.

New Product Selection

Our specialist software allows us to estimate your losses, calculate the flow rates your tanks require and size flame arresters accordingly – all of which is offered as part of the service.

We understand flame paths and how flame arresters need to interact with other system components such as VRU’s, breather vents and flare stacks. We take a consultative approach to customers requirements and are happy to talk through your P&IDs with you.

Replacements & Upgrades

If you are concerned about the size or performance of your flame arresters we would love to talk to you.
