Fuel container for motor vehicles is connected to additional container of flame-colouring additive and has sensor to release additive in presence of fault signal

摘要

The fuel container is connected to an additional container containing a flame-colouring additive. A measured value recorder in the presence of a fault signal causes the additive to be sent from the additional container to the fuel container. The measured value recorder can also be the sensor through which the airbag is triggered. The fuel container is made from plastics, steel or aluminium and the additional vessel is made from steel, plastics, aluminium, glass or ceramic material.
