Length of 3"x 1/4" wall square tubing. Weld end plates on the tubing.
Drill and tap for 4-6 Festo U-1 exhaust mufflers (silencers). Drill
and tap one end plate for a ball valve to be used as a drain. Drill
and tap the other end to connect your pipe. You can mount it inside
without it being excessivly loud, and would be very safe.

Thanks. I do not quite understand everything that you said, but I
saved your post for future reference.

These are exhaust silencers designed for compressed air systems. A U-1
is a 1" NPT size silencer. Basically, what you are making is an
expansion tank (3" square tubing), that is bled off by the silencers.
The automatic drain would be piped to this, where the blast is safely,
and quietly bled off by the silencers. 4 to 6 of these silencers would
more than handle the drain valve exhaust of a 2 sec duration dump.
