Explosion Resistant Silos

For storage of explosive solids, Muyang offers special steel silo with an explosion-resistant design. A distinction is made between silos that are pressure-tight (no deformation allowed) and pressure-shock-resistant (deformation allowed). The silos are designed for either the solid's maximum explosive pressure (up to 9 bar) or in case explosion pressure relief is used, for the reduced explosive pressure (generally 2 bar).


Muyang makes not only static calculations for pressure-shock-resistant storage silo, but also the calculations for the pressure relief surface. Its approved explosion flaps protect pressure-relieved silos. In the event of an explosion, the explosion flap will open and allow the silo to relief pressure. Unlike rupture disks, explosion flaps are self-closing and can be used again after an explosion. If needed, we equip explosion flaps with under pressure safety mechanisms and electric heating.

Muyang has decades of expertise in this field and guarantee its customers the highest quality and greatest safety.
