ARC-VENT®
VIGILEX ARC-VENT®
The new VIGILEX ARC-VENT® range is specifically designed and engineered for installation on BESS and on the external walls of electrical switch rooms to relieve the over-pressurization caused by gas or arc flash explosions.
These safety elements are tested and certified to open at the required pressure. They are generally installed on the top of a BESS to safely direct an explosion upwards and away from surrounding equipment or people. ARC VENT® panels are IP66 certified for waterproof protection, and ATEX EN 14994 certified for the design of gas explosion venting systems.
ARC-VENT® INS – A
To complement our product range, we offer the ARC-VENT® INS – A panels with insulation protection below the vent panel, specifically designed to provide superior thermal performance. To meet the internal environmental control requirements of your BESS, we have enhanced the thermal insulation properties of our panels to ensure optimal enclosure protection.
In the INS – A version, we incorporate a layer of synthetic rubber insulation foam on the internal side of the panel, significantly minimizing thermal weak points caused by use of venting panels. INS – A is available in various insulation thicknesses to suit your specific needs, all while maintaining the panel’s efficiency during explosion events.
ARC-VENT® INS – B
To optimize our product range, we offer the ARC-VENT® INS – B panels with insulation protection box below the vent panel, specifically engineered for superior thermal performance. Designed to meet the internal environment control requirements of your BESS, we have enhanced the thermal insulation properties of our panels to ensure optimal enclosure protection.
As an alternative to INS -A version, the INS – B model incorporates mineral wool encased in an aluminum box, providing equivalent insulation performance without the use of synthetic rubber foam. INS -B is available in various insulation thicknesses to suit your specific needs, all while maintaining the panel’s efficiency during explosion events
ARC-VENT® INS +
In certain cases, our INS – versions may not align with the design of your BESS, and internal insulation may not be suitable. To address this, we offer an alternative solution to ensure effective thermal control for your BESS.
The ARC-VENT® INS + delivers high insulation performance by incorporating mineral wool on the external side of the panel. This insulation is encased in anodized aluminum, providing robust protection against environmental factors and ensuring a long service life. With this external insulation setup, there is no interference with your piping or electrical wiring networks.
This alternative preserves the primary function of our panels during an explosion, and we can offer varying insulation thicknesses to meet your specific thermal efficiency requirements.
ARC-VENT® INS + MAX
The new ARC-VENT® INS + MAX panel has a unique design which employs a stamped stainless-steel membrane which gives it the strongest resistance of any similar product on the market in the event of elevated external load (such as a heavy snowfall).
The stamped membrane also makes it possible to create a physical hydraulic-pressed barrier against any water intrusion within the panel insulation.
The INS + MAX is designed to integrate the insulating foam within the membrane itself, eliminating the requirement of an insulation box.
EXPLESS
The first explosion vent on the market to be IP67 rated. Its very special design, which incorporates a seal over the entire surface of the panel, has enabled the EXPLESS panel (patent pending) to meet the demanding tests allowing IP67 certification with, in particular, resistance under 1.0 meters of water for more than 30 minutes.
Installed on the roof of the BESS, it provides perfect sealing for a lifespan of at least 20 years.
