10 PURPOSE
Flame arrestors are required to prevent propagation of flame from a stochiometric mixture of hydrogen, air & steam from VST'S & prevents
11 backflow of gas through pipe.

14 Gas/Vapour Hydrogen up to 100% Air up to 100% Saturated Steam up tp 100%

Arrester will protect pipe from a tank with 40m³ gas space containing a maximum of 370
Nature of fluid moles of hydrogen with varying quantities of other gases. When the pressure is higher in
the tank, the hydrogen concentration will therefore be lower
