Inflator Modules





The inflator modules consist of an inflatable bag and an inflator (a canister of gas-generating material and an initiating device). When the vehicle is in a frontal crash requiring deployment, the SDM causes current to flow through the deployment loops. Current passing through the initiator ignites the material in the inflator The gas produced from this reaction rapidly inflates the air bag.
