Rupture Disk, Nickel

Nickel Ruptue Disk. Rupture disks are used as safety devices in systems that involve pressure vessels, eliminating the need for a safety valve. The rupture disk is designed to be the weakest part of a pressure system so if there is a situation when excessive pressures occur, then the rupture disk fractures or opens thus releasing the built-up energy rendering the system safe. Rupture disks are a simple, yet reliable method for providing a safe system, which does not require calibration.
