Description and Application
SOLAR BE-101 is a semi-finished product designed to meet customer needs in all open-pit mining, quarry, and construction applications. The product, brought to the site with charge trucks, large tanks, or IBC tanks, is pumped into the holes using the Mobile Explosive Production Unit and charged into the hole. During this process, the sensitivity is increased with gassing products, making it explosive. SOLAR BE-101 is a feed-sensitive product.
Advantages
Excellent water resistance,
Complete fit with the hole wall,
Easy filling of holes,
Better fragmentation and high VOD,
Improved security against impact and friction,
Low gas emission.
Usage Recommendations
SOLAR BE-101 is charged starting from the bottom of the hole with suitable Mobile Explosive Production Units. It replaces the water in the hole and fits perfectly with the hole wall. It is gassed while being charged into the hole and becomes a feed-sensitive explosive.
