TNT equivalent of all type of explosive substances or articles, with the exception of articles with shaped charges. The container withstands and absorbs the detonation of the explosive substance or article inside.
The container is packed in the especially designed (and tested) UN 4A stainless steel outer box.
After testing the competent authority in The Netherlands “TNO Defence, Safety & Security” concluded the following classifications to the Explosafe 7.5 (except when loaded with shaped charges):
UN 0349 ARTICLES, EXPLOSIVE, NOS; 1.4S (US DOT Class C) and
UN 0481 SUBSTANCES, EXPLOSIVE, NOS; 1.4S (US DOT Class C)
So, container and outer box are a totally safe combination able to fulfill the conditions of the UN Model Regulations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Class 1 – Explosives, Division 1.4 compatibility group S, such as ‘..any hazardous effects arising from accidental functioning are confined within the package…’
For many types of explosives TNO has calculated the volumes allowed in the Explosafe 7.5. Please ask DGM for the TNO ‘Equivalence List’.
The DGM Explosafe is used by armies, police forces, producers of explosives, security authorities, specialized industries and DGM companies.
