The pressure relief assembly is provided in a hole in the container and includes a cylindrical housing having one end closed off and provided with an opening for a pressure relief valve. The pressure relief valve is mounted on a mounting plate which has a diameter greater than the hole provided in the bottom wall of the cylinder. A tube element is welded to the container about the opening to which the cylindrical housing of the pressure relief assembly is attached through the provision of a circumferential mounting flange. A cover may be provided over the cylindrical housing of the pressure relief assembly to protect the assembly from weather.
