NASA
This custom-engineered flame arrester was tested for NASA by Jacobs Engineering at the White Sands Test Facility in New Mexico. The purpose-built assembly demonstrates Paradox IP LLC's ability to configure flame protection for specialized equipment, operating conditions and installation constraints.
United States Navy
Three custom flame-arrester configurations engineered for United States Navy applications, carrying application-specific construction details across the C-Series model range.
SHINE
A USCG-approved hydrogen detonation flame arrester custom-engineered for SHINE for use in a medical radioactive-isotope project. This model is for hydrogen/air mixtures with a maximum experimental safe gap (MESG) of 0.28 mm and larger.
