BS&B Safety Systems Debuts GHI Rupture Disk

BS&B Safety Systems has launched the GHI Rupture Disk, capable of providing one-way or two-way (pressure and vacuum) relief.
The GHI (Gasketed Hi/Lo) Rupture Disk activates at burst pressures as low as 12.5 mbar/5 in water column in 4 in/100 mm sizes.
“Low-pressure rupture disks have traditionally required a separate safety head that adds cost, complexity and weight,” says Geof Brazier, director of development, BS&B Safety Systems, LLC. “To achieve the desired low burst pressure also often requires the use of an oversized rupture disk and an adapter that makes the entire device even bigger and heavier.”
The GHI Rupture Disk eliminates the need for a safety head. It is a self-contained assembly that installs directly between sanitary piping connections using industry-standard clamps and fittings. This also serves to simplify installation and replacement.
By combining high sensitivity at low pressures with a simplified installation process, the BS&B GHI rupture disk design addresses longstanding challenges related to safety, efficiency and compliance within industries that demand hygienic conditions for very low burst pressures. The result is a simplified safeguard for process integrity, helping food processors maintain consistent operations even under fluctuating temperature or pressure conditions.
