A pyrotechnic valve, also explosive actuated valve, short pyro valve or pyrovalve is a one time use propulsion component often used to control propellant or pressurant systems aboard spacecraft or space probes. The device is activated by an electric signal, upon which one or several small explosive charges are ignited.
The pyro fuse is installed on the positive terminal of the battery and receives a signal from the vehicle's control unit in the event of an accident. During an accident, the pyrotechnic charge in the pyrofuse is triggered, which uses a piston to break the power circuit and de-energize the vehicle's battery.
