Products & Equipment
Explosion Isolation Valves
Safeguard your entire system with fast-acting isolation valves that stop flames and pressure in their tracks, protecting valuable equipment and keeping operations running.
Spark Arrestors
Stop sparks before they become disasters by capturing and cooling them before they reach your dust collector.
Heavy-Duty Abort Gates
Protect your investment with automatic diverting gates that redirect sparks or burning material to a safe area, reducing costly damage and downtime.
Fire Suppression Systems
Gain peace of mind with rapid-response fire suppression that detects and extinguishes flames instantly to protect your people and facility.
Spark Detection and Extinguishing Systems
Stay one step ahead of danger with smart detection systems that sense sparks early and activate targeted suppression before ignition occurs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of hazards require explosion protection?
Combustible dust from materials like wood, grain, metal, plastics, and chemicals can ignite under the right conditions and require engineered mitigation solutions.
What is the difference between explosion venting and explosion suppression?
Explosion venting safely releases pressure from an explosion event, while suppression systems detect and extinguish an explosion in its early stage before pressure builds.
What is explosion isolation and why is it necessary?
Explosion isolation prevents flame and pressure from traveling through ductwork or interconnected equipment, stopping a single event from spreading throughout the facility.
Are explosion mitigation systems required by code?
Yes, NFPA standards and OSHA regulations often require hazard assessments and appropriate explosion protection for facilities handling combustible materials.
Can explosion and fire mitigation systems be retrofitted to existing equipment?
In many cases, yes. Isolation valves, spark detection, suppression systems, and venting devices can often be integrated into existing dust collection or processing systems.
