PROTEGO® BE/HZ

Øa The BE/HZ consists of a housing (1), a weather hood (2) and

the PROTEGO® flame arrester unit. The weather hood is made
Øb out of acrylic glass, which will melt when impacted by flames
and allow heat to dissipate to the environment. The flame
arrester unit consists of two FLAMEFILTER® (3), which are
installed in the housing.
The standard design can be used for operating temperatures up
to +60°C / 140°F.
Type-approved according to ATEX Directive 94/9/EC and

information.

Training
By offering continuing education and regular training for the
employees of our domestic and foreign customers, we make
sure that state-of-the-art knowledge is incorporated into system
engineering. We regularly conduct training seminars that cover
the theory of technical fundamentals, examples of applications
and practice in installing and servicing PROTEGO® devices.
The seminars can be offered either at our place of business or
at the customers.

Research and Development

Our R&D center continuously reviews and develops our devices
and incorporates product features relevant to safety engineer-
ing. In addition, we develop devices jointly with the customer
for customer-specific requirements. The result: Continuous im-
provement of the performance and quality of flame arresters and
valves as well as superior knowledge from basic research, which
is incorporated into the design of process engineering systems.

Installation and Servicing

We value service and maintenance just as highly as
product quality. Qualified operating and service instructions are
sufficient for trained professional technicians to perform
maintenance tasks. We can provide our trained field service
technicians for installation and servicing, or you can use our
authorized workshops. The key is trained personnel who are
sufficiently prepared for their tasks in our manufacturing plant.
Trained qualified professional shops are given a certificate and
are authorized to perform maintenance on PROTEGO® devices.
We will provide you with contacts in your region.

Spare Parts Service

We have original spare parts for you in our headquarter as
well as in support centers worldwide. Original spare parts and
regular servicing tailored to the respective operating conditions
guarantee trouble-free operation.
