Fike Corporation, a global manufacturer with over 60 years of experience in explosion protection, fire suppression, and pressure relief products founded in 1945, provides rupture discs, pressure relief valves, and explosion protection solutions relevant to hydrogen process safety applications. Fike's proprietary G2 manufacturing technology produces reverse-acting rupture discs using laser ablation rather than scoring/coining, resulting in more predictable and reliable performance for hydrogen processes that often use pressure relief valves (PRVs) susceptible to leaking valuable and flammable hydrogen emissions—Fike's rupture discs can be used in tandem with PRVs to minimize leaking and improve total cost of ownership. The company addresses hydrogen embrittlement (loss of metal ductility from hydrogen exposure that can cause severe damage to critical process components) by engineering rupture discs as safeguarded critical process components resistant to this degradation mechanism. Fike's comprehensive explosion protection portfolio—including explosion venting, isolation, and suppression systems that detect and suppress explosions in their earliest stages using pressurized chemicals within milliseconds—along with its EXP Explosion Protection System featuring patented container and nozzle designs, positions the company to protect hydrogen production, storage, and processing facilities from overpressure and explosion hazards inherent to hydrogen's wide flammability range.
