EBOLC Demo exam questions
and answers
M9 Blasting Cap and Shock Tube Holder - answer black or olive drab
plastic clamping devices designed to secure shock tube branch lines
in close proximity to a shock tube initiated blasting cap.
Can be used to initiate up to five shock tubes from one blasting cap.
Not designed to initiate shock tube and Det Cord simultaneously.
M81 Fuse Igniter - answer Will initiate the time fuse and shock tube
end of MDI components. Is almost identical to the older M60 igniter
except it has a screw-end cap with a green shipping plug and a
silicon shock tube reducer. The cap allows it to accommodate either
a standard shock tube or a standard diameter time-blasting fuse
(M700). Extra care is required when connecting a shock tube to it to
ensure proper initiation of an explosive system.
M12 Shock Tube Component and Blasting Cap - answer -Low
strength blasting cap
-used as a transmission line in a firing system. It does not have
enough output to initiate military explosives reliably
-500 feet of Shock Tube
-Accommodate and ensure proper proximity for initiating up to 5
shock tubes, 5 low-strength detonating cords, or 1 strand of
detonating cord from the blasting cap or booster
M13 Shock Tube Component and Blasting Cap - answer -Low
Strength Blasting cap
-used as a transmission line in a firing system. It does not have
enough output to initiate military explosives reliably
-1000 feet of shock tube
