One in a million

Elfab has tested its Opti-Gard range of rupture discs to over one million life cycles. The new service life, over four times longer than previously achieved within the industry, is said to be a significant improvement.

Since its launch in 2004, the range has proved so robust and reliable in operation that Elfab offers a threeyear warranty as standard on Opti- Gard discs supplied after 1st January 2011. Opti-Gard's improved service life and three-year warranty now allow customers to more precisely calculate how long their discs will last in service and to better plan their maintenance schedules following product installation.

Opti-Gard's three per cent performance tolerance has allowed the optimisation of process pressures for many of Elfab's customers.
