Abstract
An evacuation system includes an inflatable device, and a charged cylinder configured to store a compressed gas. The evacuation system further includes an aspirator configured to receive the compressed gas and to inflate the inflatable device in response to receiving the compressed gas. The evacuation system further includes a firing cable having a maximum length and an elastic component configured to cause the firing cable to have an at-rest length that is less than the maximum length in response to a lack of force applied to the firing cable, the firing cable being coupled to the charged cylinder and configured to cause the charged cylinder to release the compressed gas in response to sufficient force being applied to the charged cylinder via the firing cable.
