Flotronic® Guardian and Sentinel Protection Systems

Product catalog summary

Overview
Flotronic Pumps offers advanced diaphragm protection and alarm systems, known as Guardian and Sentinel, designed to enhance the safety and reliability of their pumps. These systems are engineered to prevent damage and environmental leakage in the event of diaphragm rupture.

Guardian System
The Guardian system incorporates an additional diaphragm behind each primary working diaphragm. This setup creates secondary chambers that contain media in case of a rupture, protecting the pump's air system and minimizing environmental leakage. The system allows for the integration of pressure switches for rupture indication.

Sentinel System
The Sentinel system is an upgrade to the Guardian, featuring an audible alarm and pump shutdown capabilities. It operates as a self-contained pneumatic system that detects vacuum loss in the intermediate chamber, indicating potential diaphragm failure. The system can shut down the pump, sound an alarm, and provide an auxiliary pneumatic pressure signal.

Customization and Materials
Both Guardian and Sentinel systems can be customized to meet specific requirements, including connection types, construction materials, and surface finishes. Compatible materials include Aluminium, PVC, Polypropylene, PTFE, anti-static PTFE, 316 Stainless Steel, NITRILE, and EPDM.

Additional Information
Flotronic pumps, including the entire range of pumps and Pulsation Dampers, can be equipped with Guardian and Sentinel packages. The systems are ATEX approved and compliant with Gas Group IIC standards.
