The ECU is ideal for vast trackless operations where large quantities of explosives are required within each blast. A basket, raised working platform, or robotic arm, can be fitted to the rear of the charging unit to reach high ends or inaccessible rings.
Safe Use
- Never fight explosive fires.
- Refer to Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for first aid information.
- All explosives must be transported and stored in accordance to relevant regulations.
- All explosives are classified as dangerous goods and may cause damage to property, personal harm, or death, if not used correctly.
- Always keep products away from sources of heat, sparks, flame or hot surfaces and avoid mixing with combustibles or incompatible materials.
