The restrictions posed by the UN Hazard Classification system and the overlaying local rules often dictates the use of separate vehicles for movement or dedicated storage away from the rest of the explosive stores.
Whether the use is commercial, law enforcement, military or for NGOs running humanitarian demining or EOD programmes, the Detsafe range will make the operational planning both simpler and safer.
The smallest unit is designed to carry five detonators in a light, compact load. This was developed at a customer request to be part of a man portable humanitarian demining kit.
Similar in size to a standard NATO H83 .50 cal ammunition box the Detsafe 8M has eight moulded chambers. This is a popular unit used mainly for military electric detonators
The 18M is designed to take a single detonator in each chamber. Based on the H83 .50 Cal ammunition box, the 18M was the first Detsafe to receive a UN 1.4S classification.
This is an extended version of the Detsafe 8M, this unit is ideal for electric detonators with long connecting wires. They can be inserted into the eight chambers without folding additional folding of the coiled command wires.
Designed for the detonator kits commonly used for ‘Explosive Methods of Entry’ kits this was developed at the request of the UK national programme.
This is the certified unit used throughout the Police Forces of the United Kingdom in support of their EMOE activities.
