Composite Type Rupture Disc
A differential pressure relief device used to protect pressurized systems, equipment, and vessels from a potentially damaging overpressure condition.
Continental's Composite Rupture Discs are designed to provide instantaneous, full-opening pressure relief. Continental Disc offers two Composite Type rupture disc design styles, a preformed style, like the CDC or PLV Rupture Disc; and a flat style, like C.D.C.'s ENVIRO-SEAL Rupture Disc.
Continental's Preformed Composite Rupture Discs can be used in a variety of applications, including equipment operating at up to 80% of the rupture disc's rated (stamped) burst pressure and systems having either liquid or gas processes.
Under ideal operating conditions, such as static pressure and a temperature well below the maximum recommended for the rupture disc material used, Preformed Composite Rupture Discs may be subjected to operating pressures exceeding 80% of the rated (stamped) burst pressure. Contact the factory for additional information about the use of a Composite Rupture Disc above this 80% operating ratio.
