The AC powered fireset operates from standard 60 Hz, 120 VAC line power; the eight (8) Joule fireset provides the capability to initiate detonators from a maximum cable length of 100”. The AC Fireset provides long operating life in excess of 50,000 operations before degradation occurs. This fireset operation uses a key switch to “ARM” the unit and a “FIRE” switch to charge the high voltage for detonator initiation. The AC Fireset implements a single shot operation, such that after the firing pulse occurs the fireset is locked out. Recycling the “ARM” switch resets the fireset for another operation.
