ProTek™ Fire & Blast Protection Flange Covers


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.
