Stricter emission requirements. Higher gas volumes. More pollution.

Stricter EU emission limits require industrial companies to vent more vapors and gases through their safety systems. This higher load accelerates the fouling of flame arrestors — resulting in unplanned downtime, safety risks, and higher costs.

Higher pressure drop

As the flame arrestor becomes fouled, air resistance increases. Production stops and loading and unloading are interrupted.

Unplanned downtime

Contamination sooner or later forces emergency cleaning or replacement. One hour of unplanned downtime can easily cost €10,000 or more.

Failing safety

Corrosie en vervuiling tasten de integriteit van de flame arrestor aan, onzichtbaar van buiten. Niet voldoen aan ATEX-normen betekent juridische aansprakelijkheid.

What few people know: a contaminated flame arrestor no longer functions according to specifications. Air resistance increases, the arrestor operates less reliably — and your installation no longer complies with ATEX standards.

Safety is priceless. But a dirty or outdated flame arrestor is an invisible risk that you can eliminate.

How it works: Contaminated stream → Beta solution → Flame Arrestor. Outcome: A clean arrestor that lasts longer and functions safely. Always compliant, always operational.

Proactive protection. Demonstrable ROI.

Bèta-Industrie places the filtration solution before your flame arrestor. It removes particles and aerosols, ensuring your arrestor remains clean, lasts longer, and functions safely. Always compliant, always operational.

Previously , we had an unplanned stop several times a month due to the clogging of the flame arrestor. On an annual basis, the costs due to downtime, ship delays, and emergency maintenance amounted to well over a million euros. Since the installation of the bag filter system from Bèta Industrie, we have not had that problem again .

After the installation, our pressure drop decreased significantly and we have not experienced any unplanned downtime. The investment paid for itself within the first year .

Operations Manager, NL

Our downtime problems were truly unnecessary; the problem has now been completely eliminated. The flame arrestor now always functions according to specifications, and we no longer have to worry about safety and unnecessary maintenance costs .
