CA 2400907

An overpack is provided for packaging cylinders containing compressed gas. Cylinders containing compressed gas typically have a pressure relief mechanism that releases the gas from the cylinder when the pressure inside the cylinder approaches a pressure detrimental to the cylinder. In high heat, high temperature situations such as when the overpack is exposed to a fire, the overpack of the present invention extends the time that it takes for the cylinders to trigger the pressure relief mechanism. The overpack comprises a first container (16), a second container (50) and a thermal barrier (34), which is disposed between the containers (16 and 50).

La présente invention concerne un suremballage destiné à l'emballage de bouteilles contenant du gaz comprimé. Les bouteilles contenant du gaz comprimé sont généralement munies d'un mécanisme de sûreté qui décharge le gaz de la bouteille lorsque la pression à l'intérieur de la bouteille approche un seuil nuisible à la bouteille. Dans des situations de forte chaleur et hautes températures, comme par exemple lorsque le suremballage est exposé au feu, le suremballage de l'invention rallonge le temps nécessaire à l'enclenchement du mécanisme de sûreté des bouteilles.
