HPE (High Pressure Extract System)
Catalogs:
Overview
An HPE System requires two separate extract systems; one for normal operations and one
for emergency conditions. Normal extract is via a suitably-sized pipe with an extract filter
located close to a Glove box boundary. The HPE flows through a larger pipe, sized for the
emergency flow, required to maintain Glove box containment. This larger pipe is fitted with
an isolation valve that is opened automatically by a pressure switch when the normal
operating pressure is exceeded.
