There are several advantages of pyrotechnic valves over other types of valves, such as solenoid valves: Pyrotechnic valves have an extremely fast response time (time from the actuation signal reaching the device til the valve has closed/opened), often in the order of a few milliseconds. [1] Normally-closed pyro valves have a far lower leak rate ...
Storage configuration - assembly inverted, breather valve closed, tube cap in place. The driptorch consists of a canister for holding fuel with a handle attached to the side, a spout with a loop to prevent fire from entering the fuel canister, a breather valve to allow air into the canister while fuel is exiting through the spout, and a wick ...
The following table lists the principal elements used in modern pyrotechnics. Some elements are used in their elemental form such as particles of titanium, aluminium, iron, zirconium, and magnesium. These elements burn in the presence of air (O2) or oxidants (perchlorate, chlorate). Most elements in pyrotechnics are in the form of salts. [14]

Cutaway diagram of various types of blasting caps and detonators The oldest and simplest type of cap, fuse caps are a metal cylinder, closed at one end. From the open end inwards, there is first an empty space into which a pyrotechnic fuse is inserted and crimped, then a pyrotechnic ignition mix, a primary explosive , and then the main ...
A pyrotechnic fastener (also called an explosive bolt, or pyro, within context) is a fastener, usually a nut or bolt, that incorporates a pyrotechnic charge that can be initiated remotely. One or more explosive charges embedded within the bolt are typically activated by an electric current, and the charge breaks the bolt into two or more pieces.
