Explovent wall panels are designed to be the weakest part of the external structure.

As the explosion vent experiences pressure rise, it opens quickly allowing the rapidly expanding, heated gasses to be released to the outside, and thereby diffuses a potential explosion.

Available in two panel options, Explovent® explosion venting wall panels keep your facility safe from dangerous over pressures.

Why Explovent® Wall Venting Panels

  • ATEX compliant and CE marked
  • Lightweight, low inertia panels for quick venting
  • Field testable via non-destructive means
  • Precisely pressure calibrated at the factory
  • Unique hinge system & resettable latch
  • Smooth surfaces reduce dust accumulation
  • Hold open devices protects from implosion
  • Rigorously tested to ensure safety & compliance
  • ATEX 95 Compliant
  • Factory Mutual Approved
  • N.F.P.A. 68 Compliant

The fact that Explovent can be tested at any time, gives me peace of mind.

Explovent Wall Panels vs Blowout Sidings

Explovent Wall Panels

  • Explovent is the only venting system that can be tested at any time to periodically verify working conditions.
  • Explovent is re-settable after testing and does not need to be replaced after usage.
  • Explovent arrives on-site fully calibrated—ready to install.
  • Explovent can be installed quickly and easily to save on labor costs.
  • Explovent is lightweight and engineered in accordance with NFPA 68 code and OSHA guidelines.
  • Explovent can be tested at any time to ensure that panels are functioning as intended.
  • Explovent provides venting solutions for either wall or rooftop installation; as well as a range of natural day lighting options.
  • Explovent has Factory Mutual (FM) and ATEX approved models.
  • CS has over 35 years of experience in specialty venting and is recognised as the leader in providing complete, code-compliant solutions.

Blowout Sidings

  • Blowout siding cannot be field tested to verify working conditions outside of an explosion.
  • Blowout siding can only be used once, and must be replaced after opened.
  • Blowout siding employs shear bolts and fasteners and thus is highly dependent on proper installation by site laborers.
  • Blowout siding requires timely on site-engineering before installations.
  • Blowout siding systems are typically larger and heavier than NFPA standards recommend.
  • Independent contractors lack the technical expertise and experience seen with CS’ team of professionals.
  • Without the availability for testing, blowout siding can be extremely unreliable.
  • Siding can only be provided on walls, with many systems being unable to provide functional, aesthetic solutions.
  • Blowout siding systems cannot be non-destructively tested and are often not labeled. How can you tell that they work?
