Hazard Analysis of Proposed Firing Circuits for Detonation Traps.

Abstract

This report presents the results of RF, high voltage and transient hazard analyses on four proposed systems and/or firing circuits used for initiation of a liquid explosive pipeline detonation trap. Only one circuit shows hazard possibilities. This is the breakwire sensor circuit which is indicated as potentially hazardous for both RF and transient modes. (Author)
