Properties
 Products and Densities
 The DynoMiner Profile unit is specifically designed to deliver Dyno Nobel’s
 range of water resistant pumpable bulk emulsion explosives. Densities are
 optimally controlled from 0.8g/cc to 1.2g/cc.

The processed product (explosive emulsion) is pumped into the blast hole using
 a high pressure pump and hose-pusher system using Dyno Nobel’s retract and
 gassing system technology.

Safety Systems
 Low pressure, high pressure and high temperature detection are provided on
 the discharge of the product pump. On detection of low pressure, high pressure

 Ammonium Nitrate Emulsion (ANE)
 Gassing chemicals – N17 & NL3
 Water
The unit is integrated on a typical underground carrier vehicle that is equipped with
an elevating work platform (EWP) to enable operators to get as close to the
blasting face as possible. Operator controls are mounted in the work basket.
