Rupture Disk

A rupture disk is a one-time overpressure protection device designed to intentionally burst when the design pressure is exceeded, releasing pressure to protect tanks, piping, and equipment.


Operating Principle A thin disk made of metal, graphite, or composite material ruptures instantly at the specified burst pressure, operating by material strength rather than springs or mechanical mechanisms. 
Structural Types Domed types (Forward Acting / Reverse Acting)
Graphite disks, composite disks
 Used with a holder to induce rupture in a specific direction 
Response Time & Accuracy Near-instant opening upon overpressure (milliseconds range)
 Burst tolerance (±%) control; design considerations for temperature and vibration 
Applicable Standards ISO 4126, ASME Section VIII, API 520 / 521
 Integrated with design pressure, set pressure, and piping sizing for tanks and pressure vessels 

Applications

ADD   243, Deogyang-ro, Sora-myeon, Yeosu-si, Jeollanam-do, Republic of Korea
