A protection system for use with a bleed manifold of a gas turbine engine is provided and is comprised of barrier means disposed within the manifold for preventing at least a portion of incendiary particles entrained in a fluid flowing instream through the manifold from impinging upon a wall associated with said manifold. Shielding means are also provided for shielding engine casing bleed ports from impingement by the particles.
