Device for storing gas under high pressure, particularly for storing hydrogen in vehicle using hydrogen as fuel, has trip unit with pyrocharge for indirect triggering of safety blow-off unit

摘要

The device (1) has a pressure gas container (2), a valve unit (3) and a safety blow-off unit (4) and a trip unit (6) for the safety blow-off unit. The trip unit has a pyrocharge (9) for indirect triggering of the safety blow-off unit. The pyrocharge is electrically connected by a thermoelectric generator (7) for ignition. The electrical connection between the thermoelectric generator and the pyrocharge comprises a Zener diode.
