End of Line Breather Valve with Flame Arrester (FAB Valve)

A combined safety device (FAB Valve) mounted atop storage tanks to provide dual protection. It automatically regulates internal pressure (preventing overpressure and vacuum collapse) while acting as a barrier to prevent external flames from entering and igniting flammable vapors. Compliant with API 2000, ISO 28300, and ISO 16852.

Description

Ultimate 2-in-1 Protection for Storage Tanks

An End-of-Line Breather Valve with Flame Arrester (often referred to as a FAB Valve) is an advanced, combined safety device designed to be mounted atop atmospheric and low-pressure storage tanks. It seamlessly integrates the structural protection of a Pressure/Vacuum Relief Valve (PVRV) with the fire prevention capabilities of a high-performance flame arrester into a single, compact unit.

Dual-Action Safety Mechanism:

  • Pressure Control: Automatically regulates internal tank pressure by releasing excess overpressure (out-breathing) and allowing air intake (in-breathing) to prevent vacuum collapse and reduce evaporation losses.

  • Fire Protection: Features a robust flame arrester element that acts as an impenetrable barrier, extinguishing external flames and preventing them from entering the tank and igniting internal flammable vapors.

Design & Certifications: Engineered to meet the most stringent safety protocols, the valve mechanism complies with API 2000 and ISO 28300, while the flame arrester is fully certified to ISO 16852 standards.
