Abstract: An emergency destruct system for destroying the information on microfiches attached to cards stored in security containers like the drawers of a combination lock safe. The system includes a storage tray for the cards, a tank holding fluid which can dissolve the emulsion on the microfiches, a release port assembly on the bottom of the tank and means for actuating the assembly to open the port and release the fluid contained therein. The tray contains styrofoam spacers which form compartments to store the microfiche cards, is open at the sides and is placed in the bottom of the drawer. The tank is held above the tray by a retaining member which is affixed to the upper drawer separator. The back of the drawer is cut off and a rubber pad is secured to the back of the safe to form a back for the drawer when it is in the fully closed position.
