A Cut Above the Rest...Rupture Discs (Bursting Discs)
|
|
Rupture Discs (Bursting Discs) function as a pre-designed "weak point" in a pressurized system, and they should be the strongest part of your pressure protection system. Continental Disc rupture discs (bursting discs) utilize innovative, patented designs, the highest quality materials from traceable sources, and ISO 9001 manufacturing procedures performed by skilled craftsmen. Browse through our family of products, or to find the disc to best fit your needs, use our Disc Selection Form.

Tension type rupture discs (bursting discs) are oriented in a system with the process media pressure against the concave side of the rupture disc. As the process pressure increases beyond the allowable operating pressure the tensile strength of the material is reached and rupture occurs. |

|
Reverse Acting rupture discs (bursting discs) are oriented in a system with the process media pressure against the convex side of the disc, placing the rupture disc (bursting disc) in compression. As the burst pressure rating of the disc is reached, the compression loading on the rupture disc causes it to reverse, snapping through the neutral position and causing it to open by a predetermined scoring pattern or knife blade penetration. |
