The HX7/HXF7 nozzle flame arrestor single breather valve is a one-way pressure-relief flame arrestor breather valve installed on the top of fixed roof tanks, featuring an external piping connection (with nozzle). It allows tank gas to vent outward only when overpressure occurs, while remaining tightly closed when the tank pressure is below the set value. The valve incorporates a built-in stainless steel corrugated plate flame arrestor core to effectively prevent external flame ingress, and directs the vented volatile vapors through the nozzle to a recovery system or flare line. Its core purpose is to automatically release excess gas at set pressure during tank filling or temperature rise to prevent overpressure deformation, while blocking flame propagation and directing the vented gas to centralized treatment facilities. It is suitable for tanks already equipped with independent gas intake devices or where air ingress is not permitted, meeting both environmental recovery and fire/explosion protection requirements.

Features:

1. One-way relief function: Only the pressure disc operates, automatically opening during overpressure without vacuum intake; suitable for tanks with separate gas supply systems.

2. Nozzle design: Standard flange or threaded connection directs vented gas to a recovery pipeline, flare system, or scrubber, avoiding direct atmospheric discharge.

3. Built-in flame arrestor: Stainless steel corrugated plate flame arrestor core effectively blocks external flame propagation, meeting petrochemical tank fire protection standards.

4. Set-pressure operation with reliable sealing: Flat or tapered hard seal provides stable opening pressure and zero leakage when closed.

5. Large venting capacity with low pressure drop: Optimized flow path ensures low breathing resistance, meeting venting demands during rapid tank filling.

6. All-weather protection structure: Rain and dust cover with internal drainage prevents water accumulation, suitable for harsh outdoor environments.

7. Corrosion-resistant materials: Body available in aluminum alloy, cast steel, or stainless steel; disc and flame arrestor core in stainless steel for various corrosive media.

8. Easy maintenance: Removable disc assembly; flame arrestor core can be extracted for cleaning; standard nozzle interface facilitates piping connection and periodic maintenance.
