The L&J Technologies 94450 Combination Deflagration Flame Arrester & Free Vent is a Shand & Jurs tank protection fitting designed for applications that require both deflagration flame arrester functionality and free venting in a single compact assembly.
The 94450 is used where a vent opening must allow atmospheric breathing while also incorporating a flame-arresting element within the same fitting.
This model features an accessible, removable unitized tube bank that supports inspection and servicing without removing the entire fitting from the installation.
The tube bank is housed between the body and free vent adapter, with the hood and adapter designed to be removed as a unit. This configuration helps simplify access to internal components during routine maintenance review or service evaluation.
The 94450 is available in multiple vent sizes and construction material options, allowing engineers and maintenance teams to evaluate the fitting based on project requirements, flange connection needs, material selection, and application conditions.
Process Controls Corporation can help customers review the L&J Technologies 94450 Combination Deflagration Flame Arrester & Free Vent alongside related tank venting and flame arrester equipment to support proper product selection for the intended installation.
