Designed to function as a high tension rod or cable until separation is required, the SR1100 and SR1200 devices do not employ a guillotine type action or a fracture ring machined into the rod to effect separation. Comparatively low pressure gas generating power cartridges actuate the SR1100 and SR1200 mechanical separation systems.
Hi-Shear’s Tension Rod Separators offer users and designers a number of inherent advantages. They save weight and space because they function as a part of the tension rod. They have redundancy capability – the SR1100 series uses a single cartridge while the SR1200 series accommodates two cartridges. They may be installed without the power cartridge, thereby reducing potential hazards. They can be actuated by either millisecond or time delay PC or EBW PE400 series power cartridges produced by Hi-Shear.
