CDC Forward Acting Rupture Discs

Continental Disk Logo

Tension type or forward acting rupture discs are oriented in a system with the process media pressure against the concave side of the disc. As the process pressure increases beyond the allowable operating pressure, the rupture disc starts to grow. This growth will continue as the pressure increases, until the tensile strength of the material is reached and rupture occurs. Continental Disc Corporation offers a variety of tension acting rupture discs.
