Abstract

A burst-duct detection system is provided. The system may include a manifold; a rolling diaphragm dividing a chamber within the manifold into a top portion and a bottom portion; a high pressure chamber in fluid communication with the top portion of the manifold; an ambient pressure chamber in fluid communication with the top portion of the manifold; a piston disposed within the top portion of the manifold and operably connected to the diaphragm; a mechanical link may include a proximal end, a distal end, and a middle portion, the mechanical link being disposed within a core chamber of the manifold and the proximal end operably connected to the piston; and an indicator piston operably connected to the mechanical link.
