Sensor- und Ausloesevorrichtung, insbesondere zum Ausloesen von Rettungswesten

DE 19822327 A UPAB: 20000118 NOVELTY - The arrangement has at least two metal electrodes (2,3) of different metals held at a distance apart and contacted while insulated from each other. An electronic arrangement detects the potentials of both metal electrodes via their contacts (4,5). DETAILED DESCRIPTION - A mechanism for triggering a gas discharge is controlled by the electronic device on detecting a potential difference of predefinable amplitude between the two metal electrodes. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for the use of a sensor with at least two metal electrodes. USE - Especially for triggering inflation of lifejackets. ADVANTAGE - The arrangement is very reliable
