Zook two-way bursting discs are dual rated bursting disc to protect against two different pressures in opposite directions with Burst Ratings of 0.25 to 1,000 psig

  • Mounts directly between standard ASME B16.5 flanges
  • Burst Ratings of 0.25 to 1,000 psig
  • Applications include protection of storage tanks against both excess vacuum and overpressure when single vessel entry is required
  • Furnished standard with Carbon steel armor and TFE gaskets
  • Sizes 1-1/2″ through 24″ diameters
  • 0% manufacturing range
  • Operating pressures to 90% of the disc’s marked burst pressure (Contact supplier for operating ratio for burst pressures below 40 psig)
  •  Temperature ratings –290°F to +430°F (–179°C to +221°C). The specified temperature shall be at the disc location at the time when the disc is expected to rupture
  • Optional liner available on flat side of disc to extend corrosion resistance
  • Carbon steel armor standard, 316SS optional
  • Furnished complete with TFE gaskets attached. Other gasket materials are available
  • Generally, a minimum differential of 10 psi is required between burst ratings. Contact Supplier for other burst rating combinations

Technical Data

  • Engineered Polymer Composite Construction offers cost-effective corrosion-resistance, is lightweight, non-galling, non-sparking, and non-conductive.
  • Unitized Case with Integrally Molded Flanges at the suction and discharge nozzles, fully gusseted for structural soundness.
  • Externally Adjustable, Semi-Open Impeller provides consistently high efficiencies and minimizes maintenance.
  • Shaft/Bearing System operates below the first critical speed for less shaft whip and longer bearing life.
  • Bearings can be lubricated by external flush or self-lubricated by the pump fluid.
  • Single-Piece Column is lightweight, filament-wound, reinforced fiberglass composite for strength and rigidity.

Advantages

  • Lightweight and corrosion-resistant due to engineered polymer composite construction.
  • High efficiency and minimal maintenance with externally adjustable impeller.
  • Long bearing life with low shaft whip and flexible lubrication options.
  • Robust construction with unitized case and reinforced single-piece column.
