VIPER

Aluminum Long Trigger Thermal PRD

2ND GENERATION / LT162 SERIES / 5,000 PSI / 4 – 45′

Long Trigger PRD for CNG Gas

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Viper is Emcara’s 2nd generation family of thermally activated, Long Trigger Pressure Relief Device with lengths from 4’ to 45’. Complete with anodized aluminum body, the Viper is designed for systems with working pressures up to 5,000psi. When fire is concerned, it is important to vent gas as quickly as possible to avoid the risk of a tank rupture. The Viper benefits from an advanced trigger mechanism and provides high flow rates when venting.

FEATURES

The internal mechanism utilized in the Viper PRD is robust, and possesses enhanced corrosion resistance, performing in the most challenging conditions. With a substantial length range; superior fire detection (when compared to single or multiple point PRD’s) can be achieved while providing cost savings and design flexibility.
