NONEL

The invention of NONEL by Dyno Nobel's Swedish organization in the 1970's revolutionized the blasting
industry. Instead of electric wires, a hollow plastic shock tube delivers the firing impulse to the detonator,
making it immune to most of the hazards associated with stray electrical current. NONEL shock tube is a small
diameter, three-layer plastic tube coated on the innermost wall with a reactive explosive compound, which,
when initiated, propagates a low energy signal, similar to a dust explosion, at approximately 6,500 ft/sec (2,000
m/sec) along the length of the tubing with minimal disturbance outside of the tube. The design of NONEL
detonators incorporates patented technology, including the Cushion Disk (CD) and Delay Ignition Buffer (DIB)
to provide reliability and accuracy in all blasting applications.
NONEL detonators are available in the following range of configurations to suit both general and specialized
blasting applications.

NONEL MS
NONEL MS nonelectric delay detonators consist of a precise, millisecond delay detonator crimped to a length
of shock tube, and are used in open pit mining, quarrying, construction and underground mining. NONEL MS
units are available in firing times ranging from 0 to 1000 milliseconds.

Electric Detonators
Electric detonators have a long track record of reliability and accuracy proven by generations of blasters. Many
still prefer the electric system for the ability to test the circuit before the shot is fired. Recent advancements in
detonator technology make this electric series more rugged, accurate and static-resistant than ever before.
All ELECTRIC SUPER detonators use Dyno Nobel's "super" fuse technology, which provides precision,
accuracy and no delay overlap in all delay periods, with reliable performance even where severe "water
hammer" conditions exist. In addition, explosive output exceeds the minimum sensitivity of all detonator
sensitive explosives. Legwires are insulated with a superior polyolefin material which offers excellent
resistance to cuts, abrasion, oil, low temperature and high humidity. The Dyno Nobel shunt protects the factorystripped wire ends from corrosion and shields them from stray current.
Dyno Nobel's ELECTRIC SUPER detonators are available in the following types to suit both general and
specialized blasting applications.

Electric Super SP
Electric Super SP is a high strength, static resistant, millisecond delay electric detonator available in 26 distinct
periods from 5 to 750 milliseconds. Field results with Electric Super SP have shown impressive improvements
in vibration control and fragmentation. This detonator is ideal for use in mining, quarrying and construction
work.

Electric Super LP
Electric Super LP is a high strength, long period delay electric detonator available in 19 distinct periods
from .025 to 5.1 seconds. This series of detonators provides the long delay times necessary for improved relief

and fragmentation in underground mining (non-coal) and construction applications such as drift
development, raise, shafts, slopes and tunnels. Electric Super LP can also be used for certain surface
blasting applications, such as pipeline work, where long delay periods are advantageous.
