Unlocking Value
Orica’s premium i-kon™ III system is the most sophisticated Electronic Blasting System on the market.
It includes new features and equipment that enhances productivity with faster deployment and blast setup for both small and large scale blasting. The premium system is reliable even in harsh mining environmental and blasting conditions, significantly reducing blast delays.
Connect
Enhance productivity with faster deployment and blast set-up for both small and large scale blasting:
- Connector 6 with redesigned hinge, clip and dual plastic design locks out water, dirt and snow for faster tie-in and less leakage.
- Blaster 3000 with remote firing of up to 6 benches completes more blasts within the firing window with minimal set-up and equipment.
Protect
Reliable even in harsh mining environmental and blasting conditions, the
i-kon™ III system reduces blast delays with:
- Improved dynamic shock resistance by approximately 30%, over existing copper alloy shell, reducing risk of misfire due to dynamic shock in challenging ground conditions.
- Bi-metallic shells protects the detonator for up to 60 days in highly corrosive conditions.
- The correct wire for the conditions including Extreme wire which performs in metal mines where hard, sharp and abrasive rock is prevalent.
Perform
Unlock outcome possibilities and cutting edge blasting techniques with greater precision through the premium i-kon™ III system:
- Blaster 3000 with remote firing of up to 6 benches completes more blasts within the firing window with minimal set-up and equipment.
- Sub-millisecond timing combined with the precision of 0.005% time variance enables new blasting techniques in specific applications using SHOTPlus™ 5 and Logger II.
- Achieve greater wall stability, increased fragmentation and reduced vibration.
Dynamic Pressure Misfire Reference Material
The importance of understanding the dynamic pressure mechanisms to avoid potential misfires when using electronic detonators is highlighted in the below product bulletin.
There are many variables that affect dynamic pressure misfire risk. The document below only lists some of the factors that determine the probability of a dynamic pressure misfire.
