Universal Arma-Gard™ is an engineered graphite bursting disc device. Its patented design overcomes problems associated with damage of conventional graphite bursting discs, caused by poor storage, handling and installation practice; as it is not adversely affected by misaligned, poorly supported pipework, over or uneven torquing of pipe flange bolts. This is achieved through the use of a steel armoured ring, which protects the graphite bursting element, whilst allowing the clampage necessary for correct sealing.
The Universal Arma-Gard™'s monobloc type design requires no holder, enabling direct fitting between flanges.
Unlike conventional monobloc designs the Universal Arma-Gard™ eliminates the possibility of side wall bursts. All these added benefits do not detract from excellent corrosion resistance and low pressure capability normally associated with graphite bursting discs.
