BLAST POT, STATIONARY, 6.5 CU FT, SHORT-CYCLE - PRESSURE RELEASE, PNEUMATIC, APV II W/TC SLEEVE/COMBINATION VALVE, 1-1/2" PIPING W/BIG GUN MOISTURE SEPARATOR

SHORT-CYCLE SYSTEM SAVER
     SHORT-CYCLE BLASTERS ARE DESIGNED TO WITHSTAND THE PUNISHING EFFECTS OF QUICK ON-OFF BLASTING WHILE RETAINING THE CONVENIENCE OF A PRESSURE RELEASE SYSTEM. STANDARD PRESSURE RELEASE (SPR) BLASTERS ARE GREAT FOR BLAST ROOMS BECAUSE WHEN PAIRED WITH AN OVERHEAD ABRASIVE HOPPER, THEY CAN BE REFILLED BY SIMPLY RELEASING THE CONTROL HANDLE AND ALLOWING THE BLASTER TO DEPRESSURIZE AND AUTOMATICALLY FILL. UNFORTUNATELY, WHEN BLASTING FREQUENTLY FOR LESS THAN 10 MINUTES AT A TIME, ABRASIVE CAN OVERFILL THE BLASTER, DAMAGING THE POP-UP AND CAUSING IT NOT TO SEAL PROPERLY. THIS CAUSES ABRASIVE TO"BURP" FROM AROUND THE POP-UP AND EVENTUALLY RUIN THE METERING VALVE.
      PIRATE BRAND SHORT-CYCLE BLASTERS OVERCOME THIS ISSUE BY REMAINING PRESSURIZED WHEN THE CONTROL HANDLE IS RELEASED BUT FEATURE A REMOTE BLOW-DOWN BUTTON TO ALLOW YOU TO DEPRESSURIZE/REFILL YOUR BLASTER WITHOUT LEAVING THE BLAST ROOM.

     1. AUTOMATIC PLUNGER VALVE II (APVII) PREMIUM ABRASIVE METERING VALVE WITH QUADRUPLE PLUNGER SEAL ARRANGEMENT SOLVES THE AIR & ABRASIVE CARRY OVER PROBLEM AS WELL AS THE PLUNGER & SEAL JAMMING PROBLEM NORMALLY ASSOCIATED WITH REGULATED LOW PRESSURE BLASTING APPLICATIONS AND OR THE USE OF STEEL ABRASIVE. SOLID MACHINED TUNGSTEN CARBIDE PLUNGER & SLEEVE PROVIDES FAR SUPERIOR WEAR RATES AND 100% CONSISTENT TOLERANCES. 1" NPT CLEANOUT PORT GIVES ACCESS TO OBSTRUCTIONS THAT MAY BE BRIDGING OVER THE METERING PORT ALSO ALLOWS YOU TO DRAIN THE VESSEL WITHOUT REMOVING THE VALVE.
     2. COMBINATION VALVE IS A 2 IN 1 DESIGN THAT WILL STOP THE AIR BLASTING AND RELIEVES THE PRESSURE FROM THE VESSEL WHEN THE PALM BUTTON IS ACTIVATED
     3. RELIEVING CONTROL HANDLE REDUCES AIR CONSUMPTION AND REDUCES STOPPING TIMES WHEN CONTROL HANDLE IS RELEASED
