A critical component of a complete Burst Disc Indicator (BDI) Alarm System, the MTB-700 Alarm Monitor links to as many as four rupture discs to alert your nearby control room of ruptured discs.
Upon disc rupture, the MTB-700’s intrinsically safe galvanically isolated barriers activate signals or output relays to warn operators and actuate pumps, valves or other equipment connected to the system.
Rupture discs, the BDI Alarm System and the MTB-700 Alarm Monitor
The BDI Alarm System relies on an electrical circuit. Normally, a continuous signal flows between the BDI Alarm Strip and the MTB-700 Alarm Monitor. Upon disc rupture, the alarm strip is severed — opening the circuit and disrupting the current through the strip.
The MTB-700 Alarm Monitor contains several replaceable modules and channel relays. Each channel relay connects to one alarm strip. When a rupture disc breaks its BDI Alarm Strip, a relay is actuated, sending a signal to the control panel.
Control panels, annunciators, light panels or other signaling devices can be used to warn of a ruptured disc.
Individual relay circuitry allows the MTB-700 to monitor several rupture discs at once. Pumps, valves and other systems may also be activated to respond to an overpressure or vacuum situation when an alarm strip breaks.
Technical details and options
An MTL5018AC barrier is utilized on the MTB-700 Alarm Monitor with a 120/240 VAC input power option. An MTL5018 barrier is utilized on the MTB-700 Alarm Monitor with the 24 VDC input power option.
Our rupture discs are manufactured with chemical processing in mind – corrosion resistance, leak tightness, high accuracy and durability come standard.
We understand that product purity and safety are critical in food-related industries, so we provide hygienic and aseptic vessels and piping to assure compliance with FDA and 3A requirements.
The hydrocarbon industries require cost-effective system protection with a special focus on reducing fugitive emissions. Our catalog of configurations, materials, burst ratings and sizes make our rupture discs the right choice for these operations.
We focus on solutions to meet the stringent requirements of pharmaceutical processing – wherever perfectly hygienic facilities and hermetically sealed antiseptic systems are a must.
