AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing flame arresters are bulky due to their design, which necessitates a large deployment space for the explosion panel, and there is a desire to minimize their size while maintaining functionality.
Method used
The flame arrester device incorporates a depressurization device with an explosion panel that has a weakening zone arranged to split into two parts upon rupture, reducing the deployment dimension by half and allowing for a more compact design.
Benefits of technology
The compact design reduces the size of the flame arrester device without compromising its ability to protect against explosions and flames, lowering the center of gravity and maintaining effective pressure wave weakening.

Abstract
Flame arrester device (1) comprising a hollow box (13), a filter (11) and a depressurization device which comprises at least one explosion panel (2) comprising a sheet (21) called a rupture sheet provided with a weakening zone, the box (13) having inside two opposite faces, one of which carries the explosion panel (2), characterized in that the weakening zone is arranged so as to draw in the sheet at least two parts which are intended to constitute respectively at least two leaves (3A, 3B) in the event of rupture of the sheet.
