I pannelli di sfiato per le esplosioni sono progettati per essere l’anello “debole” di un depolveratore. Quando l'interno del depolveratore raggiunge una pressione predeterminata, lo sfiato dell'esplosione si apre, consentendo alla pressione in eccesso e al fronte di fiamma di fuoriuscire in un'area sicura. È progettato per ridurre al minimo i danni al depolveratore e impedirne l'esplosione in caso di deflagrazione.
Almost all industrial manufacturing, processing or packaging applications generate dust as a side effect. Many of these dusts are both combustible as well as explosive, and removing them from the work place can significantly reduce the risk of serious accidents. It is estimated that there are approximately 2,000 dust explosions in Europe annually. Most of these are minor but some are very destructive. So by extracting the dust, the risk in the production is reduced, but unless the extraction system is safe the risk is just moved.
