Abstract: Liquid colourant material for colouring plastics material prior to a plastics forming process is stored in at least one main reservoir. A dosing pump draws the colourant from the main reservoir and delivers a predetermined amount of colourant. An intermediate reservoir between the main reservoir(s) and the dosing pump inlet temporarily retains colourant material. An evacuation pump in communication with the intermediate reservoir selectively evacuates gas therefrom. The present invention allows for accurate and consistent dosing of colourant material without any entrapped air.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a bursting insert for installation in a pipeline system for transporting a fluid showing a spontaneous exothermic reaction. The bursting insert comprises a wall which surrounds-at least in part on the outside-a passage volume having the fluid flowing therethrough in a passage direction. A pressure discharge line which is sealed relative to the passage volume with a bursting body extends out of the passage volume. When a predetermined bursting pressure is exceeded, the bursting body can be transferred into a state in which the passage volume and the pressure discharge line are interconnected in fluid-conducting fashion. For an easy mounting of the bursting body, the bursting insert can be designed as a pipeline module which can be installed and dismounted repeatedly in the pipeline system for replacing the bursting body.
