Continental
Disc Corporation's Burst Disc Indicator (B.D.I.) Alarm System
is designed specifically for use with C.D.C. Rupture Discs.
Upon disc rupture, the Burst Disc Indicator strip is severed,
disrupting the flow of electric current through the strip. An
attached alarm monitor can then transmit a warning and/or activate
appropriate equipment.
The
B.D.I. Alarm System should be specified:
- When
warning of pressure relief is essential for plant safety.
- When
immediate notice is needed of relief of an overpressure
or vacuum condition to indicate process malfunction.
- When
indication is vital that a rupture disc has burst and
toxic substances are venting.
- When
loss or contamination of product will occur if a rupture
disc is not replaced immediately.
- When
monitoring of rupture discs is important in hard-to-reach
locations.
