Electric Seismic detonator

The Electric Seismic detonator is an initiator system of explosive charge that can convert an electric into a detonation.

The special configuration of the metallic filament used to manufacture the Seismic Electric Detonator results in low resistance which assures effective high initiation energy. The property of the filament makes it safer in terms of its functionality when compared to other detonators available in the market.

The electric detonator has an electro-pyrotechnical element that can react in less than 1.0 millisecond between the moment required current is applied and detonation takes place. The electro-pyrotechnical element is hosted in an antistatic device. The interior design of the detonator that includes the insensitive electro-pyrotechnical set and the antistatic plug was specially developed to prevent accidental detonation associated with static or erratic electricity.

The Aluminium detonator shell contains a base charge of PETN and Primary Charge of Lead Azide, Lead Styphnate & Aluminium powder. The total amount of explosives in the detonator including primary charge is less than 1 g.

Product would be with copper wire of 0.6 mm diametre. The insulation over copper wire is PE. Lead wire colour can be given any colour preferred by the client.

DESTRUCTION

The destruction of explosives material is dangerous and require special training. Methods used for safe destruction may vary from case to case and will depend upon conditions under which the operations take place.

DESCRIPTION & APPLICATION

Supreme Copper Electric detonators meant for use in underground coal mines.

Supreme CED and Supreme CSDD detonators have primary charge of Lead Azide / Lead Styphnate in case of CED and Lead Azide / Aluminium Powder in case of CSDD, and base charge in both is PETN. In CSDD, the detonation is pyrotechnically delayed at a predetermined time after the firing pulse is applied.

Supreme CSDD provide delay flexibility in short period blast design, the accurate delay timing allows for a wider variety of blast design possibilities.

ADVANTAGES
  • Provides precise control necessary to produce accurate and consistent blasting results.
  • Reliably initiates all cap sensitive products.
  • Reduces possibility of any mechanical damages or water hammer effect.
  • Wide range of delay intervals give greater flexibility in blast design to control vibration, frequencies and better fragmentation with no overlap.
DESCRIPTION & APPLICATION

The Aluminium Instantaneous Electric Detonator is an initiating system of explosives charge that can convert an electric impulse into a detonation. The Aluminium detonator shell contains a base charge of PETN and Primary Charge of Lead Azide, Lead Styphnate & Aluminium powder.

The Aluminium Instantaneous Electric Detonator is designed to provide instantaneous detonation of explosive or detonating cord in quarries, surface operations, open pit mines and construction projects.

ADVANTAGES
  • Always use shot source that can provide a current flow greater than 1.2 Amps.
  • Never handle or use electric detonators in the presence of static or erratic electricity or electric storm.
  • Open the shorted ends of lead wire only to verify the continuity and initiate the blasting.
  • Never connect Supreme AED to other electric detonators with different sensitivity or blasting characteristics.
  • Do not use in gassy environments.

General recommendations
for use

Electric Detonator

Always use shot source that can provide a current flow greater than 10 Amps to the Insensitive Seismic Detonator circuit to optimize blasting in individual boreholes.
Always use series connections limiting the number of Insensitive Seismic detonators to 25 and using a reliable electric source that can supply the intensity required for the optimum initiation of the blasting circuit.
In general never handle or use electric detonator in the presence of static or erratic electricity or electric storm.
Always keep the semiconductor wires the shot wires and the connection circuit in a short cut. Only open the circuit to verify continuity and to initiate the blasting.
Never connect the Insensitive Seismic Detonator in the same series line with other electric detonators with different sensitivity or with detonators from another manufacturer since they may have different blasting characteristics and a misfire could take place.
The Solar Supreme Seismic Detonator system is not indented for use in gassy environments as underground coal mines and other surroundings where explosives gasses may exist, nor where dust explosion may break out.
