Operation

Inflator operation

1. When an operation (deployment) signal is received from the SAS control module, the igniter ignites.

2. The ignition causes the discharge area of the wall to open and compressed gas is released.

3. The compressed gas passes through the filter and the filtrate is injected into the air bag.
