Precision failure-initiating indent, high-precision scoring and a variety of construction materials make the ULTRX rupture disc a versatile and economical overpressure protection option.
The ULTRX features the highest burst pressure rating in the TRX line of scored, reverse-acting rupture discs. Learn more about the STAR X, for ultra low-pressure applications, or the MINTRX, for mid- to low-pressure applications.
- The ULTRX features:
- A standard zero manufacturing range
- A safety ratio of 1.5 or less
- Standard materials of Alloy 276, Alloy 600, Alloy 400, stainless steel and nickel
- Encapsulating rings to provide perfect alignment and eliminate seal load sensitivity
- A three-dimensional flow tag for clear verification of proper installation
- Conformance to national or international codes, including ASME Section III or VIII (ASME Code Symbol Stamp available upon request), DIN, BSI, JIS and other codes
- A non-fragmenting design
- The ULTRX rupture disc is a unique reverse-acting rupture disc, as it excels in gaseous, partial gas and liquid or all-liquid systems. A precision-controlled indentation on the rupture disc surface initiates the reversal action.
- The ULTRX eliminates:
- The concern of applying the wrong type of disc in a plant; an ULTRX rupture disc can be used in any system
- The need for a gas pocket between the rupture disc and liquid media
