Mobile Gas Flare M – 402380
Description
When commissioning or decommissioning pipelines in the low or medium pressure network, large volumes of natural gas must be discharged in a safe and environmentally friendly manner. Operational methane emissions in the gas distribution network are to be avoided or reduced as far as possible in order to achieve the ambitious national and international climate protection targets. The flaring of natural gas is an effective method of reducing methane emissions that are harmful to the climate.
The Mobile Gas Flare M is a cost-efficient and compact flaring device that has been specially developed for use in pipeline work on gas pipelines in the low and medium pressure networks. The Mobile Gas Flare M is easy to transport, extremely quick to use and ensures complete and safe combustion of the gas. The flow rates are optimized for larger pipeline volumes so that even large quantities of gas can be flared in an optimal amount of time.

Connection example
For safe operation of the Mobile Gas Flare M, we recommend using the appropriate accessories.
The Mobile Gas Flare M is connected to the gas line via a gas-resistant hose (material NBR) with a length of 5 meters or optionally with a length of 10 meters via quick couplings (Сamloсk). For connection to the gas line, the use of the connection adapter Mobile Gas Flare M (402383) is recommended. The connection adapter can be screwed directly into the gas line via a 1″ thread (ET, integrated O-ring seal). A sleeve shut-off valve and a pressure reducer are integrated in the connection adapter in order to control the gas flow safely and in a controlled manner on the one hand and not to exceed the permissible operating pressure of the gas flare (max. inlet pressure 1 bar) on the other hand. The connection adapter is equipped with a Сamloсk coupling on the outlet side so that gas hoses can be connected safely and easily.
If required, measurable values such as pressure can be recorded and measured with our smart memo and gas concentration with our OLLI via two additional connections.
Suitable adapters for connecting the connection adapter (1″ ET) to the gas line can be found in the connection accessories section.
Suitable adapters for connecting the connection adapter (1″ ET) to the gas line can be found in the connection accessories section.

Flaring times during decommissioning
In order to better estimate the time required for decommissioning, we have provided estimated flare times for the Mobile Gas Flare M in the table below.
The entries in the table indicate the estimated duration in minutes that is required at least to flare gas in a line with the given line volume (given in cubic meters) at a given starting pressure (given in bar) up to a final pressure of 50 mbar. If a further pressure reduction is required, the duration is extended accordingly.
Example: Start pressure 1 bar, total pipe volume 10 m3
Ultimate pressure 50 mbar
Expected duration: min. 6 minutes
