ABSTRACT:
A thermally released separation or disconnecting device, particularly for fire protection systems, includes two oppositely arranged joining members which are connected to each other and are subjected to a tensile force. A destructible thermal release element is held between the joining members. The joining members are constructed as stirrups with two legs each, wherein the stirrups equally absorb the tensile force. The destructible thermal release element is held between oppositely arranged legs of the stirrups and extends essentially perpendicularly of the direction of the tensile force in the locked position of the separation device. Each leg of one stirrup holding the thermal release element is connected in the locked position of the separation device to the other leg of the other stirrup in a positively engaging manner against the direction of the tensile force.
