Description and Application

SOLAR BE-909 is a semi-finished product designed to meet customer needs in all underground mining and construction applications. The product, brought to the site with large tanks or IBC tanks, is pumped into the holes using Underground charge units and charged into the hole. During this process, the sensitivity is increased with gassing products, making it explosive. SOLAR BE-909 is a feed-sensitive product. It is easily used in underground conditions such as shaft blasting, tunnel opening, and upward hole drilling.

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-909 is charged starting from the bottom of the hole with suitable underground charge units, fitting perfectly with the hole wall. It is gassed while being charged into the hole and becomes a feed-sensitive explosive.
