The Model BP420 burst plugs are designed specifically for use in plastic extrusion systems. The Model BP420 will instantaneously rupture at a specific, predetermined pressure and temperature. Each one piece assembly consists of a 304 stainless steel body with a welded Inconel rupture disk. May be specified for primary relief in applications where pressure build-up can occur so rapidly that the response time of a relief valve is inadequate, such as in a polymerization reaction vessel.
