Types of Explosive Accessories

1. The document discusses various initiating devices used to detonate explosives including detonating cords, detonating relay connectors, signal tubes, detonators, and exploders. 2. Electric detonators are described including instantaneous, millisecond delay, half second delay, electronic, and Carrick coal mine detonators. Delay intervals, compositions, and concepts of operation are provided. 3. Exploders are electronic devices that activate high frequency electric detonators through a ring transformer operating at frequencies between 12,000-25,000 Hz. 4. Top versus bottom initiation and Anzomex primers or boosters made of cast pentolite are also summarized.

Magnadet High Frequency Electric Det.

Concept:
Detonator wires are connected
to a ring transformer consisting
of a ferite ring – TOROID.

Toroid is frequency sensitive


activated by the special AC
powered exploder operating in
the frequency range of
12 000 – 25 000 Hz. [AC]

ANZOMEX PRIMERS (Boosters)

• Anzomex boosters are cast water proof primers, made


principally of cast pentolite (mixture of PETN, TNT and
other miner ingredients
– High strength, and high densi
– High VOD (7000 m/s)
– Lower shock sensitivity, friction, impact.
