Burst Alert® Sensors for Rupture Disks and Other Devices Sensor Type BAS+TM Armored: ABAS+TM Features • Polyimide film • Tantalum conductor wire • Dual path conductor • Reconnect StopsTM • Wide conductor separation Burst Pressures See Table 1 Note: Two Reconnect StopsTM are seen at the breaking ends of the tantalum conductor wire run into the gasket. The stops provide electrical insulation to minimize risk of sensor reconnection after a pressure relief event. Use with the following rupture disk type Sure-Saf Order as EC-Alert Sensor: ECR, ECV, ECT, V/ECR (see table 1) Forward acting...

Operation / Electrical Information Burst Alert Sensors operate in a “normally closed” electrical circuit with a polymer membrane supporting its electrical conducting circuit. When the pressure event (disk rupture / valve opening) occurs, the flow (gas or liquid) breaks the tantalum electrical conductor located on the polymer membrane. The electrical status of the sensor changes to “normally open.” The recommended maximum operating limits for Burst Alert Sensors is a current of 500mA, maximum voltage 24 VDC; satisfactory operation can be obtained at a few milliamperes current. Gaskets:...
