A new type of TÜV-approved, stainless-steel spray guard (photo) provides effective protection from dangerous spray-outs of fuel oils and other flammable liquids from pipes and flanges. The safety shield incorporates a steel band and an internal stainless-steel mesh that wraps around flanges and valves. The mesh is designed to sit against the flange — between it and an outer steel band — and compresses against it to ensure that sprays or leaks are dispersed, while also preventing lateral spray. The shield has been pressure tested to 50 bar, and has a quick-release connection for simple installation and removal. — Allison Engineering, Basildon, U.K.
