BP420 Series Burst Plugs

The Model BP420 burst plugs from Dynisco have been particularly developed for use in plastic extrusion systems. These burst plugs will rupture instantly at a predetermined, specific temperature and pressure.

Each one-piece assembly features a 304 stainless steel body with a welded Inconel rupture disk. It could be designated for primary relief in those applications where pressure buildup can take place so quickly that the response time of a relief valve becomes insufficient, for example, in a polymerization reaction vessel.
