TECHNICAL INTEGRITY, ZERO MAINTENANCE, LOW LIFE COST
ProTek™ flange covers are designed and
engineered to protect ANSI flanges and compact flanges from failure due to the effects of blast followed by hydrocarbon jet fire. The protection cover also ensures that the flange bolts are fully protected throughout the duration of the jet fire.
The covers can be provided to meet a range of
different blast and jet fire scenarios and to fit to the full range of standard flange sizes.
The flange covers are manufactured using
lightweight ProTek™ composite technology that has been used on several hundred equipment enclosures currently installed on onshore plants and offshore installations in UK, Norway and the rest of the world.
The ProTek™ flange covers are designed for use in
harsh environments encountered offshore with no degradation in performance offering a low lifecycle cost for 30 year design life.
