Abstract
A system may include a manifold. The manifold may include a body and a rupture disc. The body may include first connector connected to a pressurized source, a second connector, and a third connector. The body may include hollow pathway network including a first path portion extending from the pressurized source to a pathway junction, a second path portion extending from the pathway junction to the second connector, and a third path portion extending from the pathway junction to the third connector. The first path portion may include a bend. The rupture disc may be positioned between the bend and the pathway junction. When the rupture disc is in an unruptured state, the rupture disc may seal the first path portion from the other path portions. When the rupture disc is in a ruptured state, the rupture disc may allow a flow from the pressurized source to the third connector.
