KISS - Sizing & Selection Platform
KISS is a valve sizing program that assists you quickly and accurately to calculate your tank requirements so that you can choose the KITO valve suitable for your application. KISS is an online program that requires no admin permissions. You can find a direct link to KISS on our website.
KITO® EFA-Det4-IIA-…Bi-directional in-line detonation flame arrester, short-time burning proof
For installation into pipes to the protection of vessels and components against stable detonation of flammable liquids and gases. Tested and approved as detonation flame arrester type 4. Approved for all substances of explosion groups IIA1 to IIA with a maximum experi-mental safe gap (MESG) > 0.9 mm. Bi-directionally working in pipes, whereby an operating pressure of 1.1 bar abs. and an operating temperature of 100 °C must not be exceeded. The installation of the detonation flame arrester into horizontal and vertical pipes is permissible. If equipped with a temperature sensor (PT 100) a protection against stabilized burning is given from one resp. both sides. The devices are tested and approved with different burning times depending on their sizes (NG 100: TBT= 30 min, NG 500: TBT= 1 min).
KITO® VD/KG-PA-IIB3-…Deflagration proof pressure and vacuum relief valve
End-of-line armature for venting apertures on tank installations. Tested and approved against atmospheric deflagrations for all materials of the explosion group IIB3 with a maximum experimental safe gap (MESG) ≥ 0.65 mm and a maximum operating temperature of 60 °C. Used mainly as venting and breather device for fixed roof tanks. Used to prevent inadmissible pressure and vacuum and to minimize unwelcome gas losses or inadmissible emissions respectively. The housing is mounted perpendicularly on a tank roof.
KITO® EV/o-…Pressure relief valve
Emergency venting device for installation on storage tanks with a VRV to protect against hazardous excess pressure but minimize the loss of gas/vapours. Also suitable as replacement of a manhole. This device does not protect against the hazard of explosion or stabilized burning.
