The SHX rupture disc is a forward acting, cross scored rupture disc, ideal for high pressure sanitary applications.

The concave surface of the SHX rupture disc remains in contact with the process media and is designed to burst along the cross score pattern when subjected to a predetermined pressure.

In addition, the hub ring prevents the disc petals from fragmenting at the maximum burst pressure and provides a rigid support to prevent the disc from slipping.

Fike sanitary rupture discs are in compliance with 3-A standard 60-01. As a result, certified rupture discs are designated as “One Time Installation” and are designed to be easily cleaned through CIP (Clean-In-Place) methods and not intended for removal and re-installation in order to maintain 3-A compliance.
