EQUIPMENT
The system should be operated only by trained and authorized personnel using the dedicated equipment designed specifically for operating E STAR detonators. No other special equipment is needed for working with ESTAR GOLD HD.
BENEFITS
Detonator wires insulation is 33% thicker than the standard E⭑STAR
⚫ Best performance under the heavy mats or in conditions with abrasive rock
• Copper shell for high water resistance and long sleep time
• Delay range 1 – 20,000 ms
• Minimum delay increment 1 ms
• Maximum accuracy 0.01% of nominal delay
• Up to 1,600 detonators controlled by one Blasting Machine and one Logger
• Multiple ways of programming
• Possible remote blasting
• Possible dual blasting – up to 3,200 detonators in one shot
• Multi-level detonator verification prior each blast • 100% verification of reliability of blast
• Fast verification and fast arming possibility • Color coded connectors, orange for lengths up to 9 m and pink from 12m
