technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a pressure relief device and a housing with such a pressure relief device. In particular, the invention relates to an explosion-proof enclosure of the "pressure-resistant encapsulation" type of protection, known as protection type ex-d. Background technique
[0002] Housings of the pressure-resistant encapsulation type often have so-called pressure relief devices, by means of which the excess pressure generated in the housing can be released to the outside. Such pressure relief devices typically have a porous body which, while gas permeable, prevents the breakdown of flames or hot particles due to the narrowness and length of the pores extending through the body.
[0003] A pressure relief device is known from DE 10 2010 016 782 A1 with such a porous body having a first side pointing toward the housing interior and a second side facing the surroundings. The pressure relief device also has a membrane which is arranged between ...
