Reverse Acting Rupture Disc

Rupture Discs (Bursting Discs) function as a pre-designed “weak point” in a pressurized system, and they should be the strongest part of your pressure protection system. Continental Disc Corp’s rupture discs (bursting discs) utilize innovative and patented designs, the highest quality materials from traceable sources, and ISO 9001 manufacturing procedures performed by skilled craftsmen.

Aside from instantaneous full relief, zero leakage and lower operating costs. Rupture discs (bursting discs) are a failsafe relief device and that is a significant advantage if the purpose of your relief device is protection of personal and equipment. Valves can stick, corrode, be damaged or miss assembled when serviced. All of which can result in a failure to relieve and result in a potentially catastrophic outcome. HPX rupture discs are a fail safe design which, regardless of damage, corrosion and age, will still burst at or below it’s certified value.
