BlasterOne DCTX

Dual Combination Tactical Exploder

Specifically designed for Energetic Breaching, the DCTX is a compact, high-energy, capacitive discharge Combination Blasting Machine. Dual Combination means that the DCTX is a true dual shock tube shooter that also fires EBCs, and Electric Breech. The DCTX’s compact body can fit in a radio pouch ( or similar) and requires just one hand to operate. Shock tubes can be secured using attachment loops.

Features:

Electrical Blasting

  • 390 VDC @ 11.4 Joules (Avg.) firing energy
  • Capable of initiating over 75 caps in series
  • Lead wires connect to integrated, touch-proof Push Posts for shooting EBCs, or an Electric Breech
  • Fires an Electric Breech with a 100ms pulse; breech is automatically released, even if FIRE is maintained
