A pressure relief system is provided and a corresponding method for relieving pressure from a duct routing a gas from a compressor to a load utilizing the same. According to one aspect, a pressure relief assembly, located near the load, and independent of the primary load compressor pressure relief valve, for use with a duct includes a cover, first and second chambers, and a piston. The piston provides a moveable wall between the chambers and is coupled to the cover. As gas from the duct enters the two chambers, the configuration of the chambers provides for a pressure differential that moves the piston and the corresponding cover. This movement transitions the cover from a closed configuration that seals the duct to an open configuration that allows gas within the duct to escape.
