ABOUT WESTECH FLAME ARRESTERS
Advanced Flame Arrester Technology, Engineered & Manufactured by Westech
Westech Industrial is a Canadian manufacturer specializing in high-performance in-line deflagration and detonation flame arresters designed to protect personnel, equipment and industrial facilities from flame propagation. With decades of experience in petrochemical processing and industrial safety, Westech combines specialized engineering, extensive product testing and precision manufacturing to deliver dependable flame protection solutions. Our flame arresters are engineered for demanding applications involving flammable gases and vapours, supporting reliable operation across industrial facilities worldwide.
Westech flame arresters use passive flame-quenching technology to help prevent flames from travelling through piping systems while allowing process gases and vapours to flow during normal operation. The product range includes in-line deflagration arresters and detonation arresters designed for specified flame propagation hazards and operating conditions. These technologies are particularly important in vapour recovery, flare, incineration and other vapour handling systems where reliable flame protection is essential to safe operations.
Unlike conventional suppliers, Westech brings together research, testing, manufacturing and customer support within its own flame arrester business. From initial application review and product selection to installation guidance, commissioning assistance and ongoing maintenance, our team works directly with customers and engineering professionals around the world. With a selection of stock detonation arresters, specialized engineering capabilities and trial units available, Westech helps customers identify practical solutions that meet their operational and safety requirements.
ENGINEERED FOR PROTECTION. TESTED FOR REAL-WORLD CONDITIONS.
Advanced Research, Rigorous Testing & Proven Flame Protection
Westech flame arresters are backed by extensive research, specialized testing and decades of engineering experience. Our approach considers the complex flame propagation scenarios encountered in industrial piping systems, including conditions that may extend beyond conventional test requirements. From fundamental research to practical field applications, Westech develops flame protection technologies with a focus on safety, reliability and dependable performance.
Tested Beyond Conventional Requirements
Westech's flame arrester testing program evaluates challenging flame propagation conditions through its Flame Profile Curve approach. Testing considers scenarios such as momentum impulse from long-run stable detonations, thermal failure and potential reignition of unburned downstream gases. This comprehensive approach helps engineers assess arrester performance under demanding conditions that may not be fully represented by minimum standard testing requirements.
Research & Design Leadership
Westech developed the research methodology A Comprehensive Test Method for In-Line Flame Arresters, which contributed to the technical foundation of detonation flame arrester testing practices. Our continued focus on flame propagation behaviour, arrester design and performance evaluation supports the development of reliable industrial flame protection solutions.
Customer Service & Worldwide Support
Westech supports customers before, during and after the order with project design assistance, installation guidance, operator training, startup and commissioning support, periodic maintenance and field warranty service. A selection of stock detonation arresters and available trial units helps customers address project schedules and evaluate equipment requirements with direct support from the manufacturer.
