<p>A heat-responsive fuse cord (21) is positioned in the proximity of a pressure vessel (22) and is thermally coupled to a thermal-pressure relief device (TPRD) (23) which is in communication with the pressurized contents of the vessel (22). When ignited the fuse cord (21) burns to a thermal coupler, transferring the heat to the thermal actuator (24) of the TPRD (23). In a kit form, fuse cord (21) and a thermal coupler provide an economical remote and retrofit triggering system for TPRD's (23) having an otherwise limited environment of influence.</p> |
