Innopak products are designed for general purpose blasting applications in underground mines, open pit mines, quarries, and construction with wet or dry holes. Innopak products may be used to prime holes dry holes loaded with ANFO. Innopak cartridges should not be slit or tamped in the presence of sulphide reactive ground.
Innopak products are used as column loads in small to medium hole diameter applications where bulk heavy ANFOs or emulsions blends fall below their critical diameters. Innopak products are detonator sensitive and can be used to prime Innopak column loads in wet holes, and prime blow loaded or free poured column loads of ANFO in dry holes. Innopak product energies can be selected to match desired blast fragmentation distributions or economies.
Innopak products are dual salt emulsions demonstrated to generate very low levels of post blast fume and suitable for use in underground and surface blasting. Dual salt emulsions are also demonstrated to have extended magazine storage life under a variety of environmental conditions.
| Property | Unit | Innopak Plus |
| Density | g/cm³ | 1.14 +/- 0.06 |
| Velocity of Detonation | m/sec | 5990 |
| Relative Weight Strength | RWS | 90 |
| Relative Bulk Strength | RBS | 128 |
| Water Resistance | Excellent | Excellent |
Velocity of Detonation, Relative Weight and Bulk Strengths calculated using the IPX code at a density of 1.14 g/cm³ and a cut-off pressure of 100 MPa relative to ANFO at a density of 0.80 g/cm³.
Actual in field velocity of detonation will vary and is dependent on hole diameter and confinement.
Innopak cartridges emulsions are compatible with most non-electric and electronic detonator systems and are reliably initiated with detonators assembled with high strength detonators (No. 8 strength or greater base charge).
Do not attempt to initiate Innopak with No. 6 strength fuse caps.
Innopak cartridges emulsions are reliably initiated with 10 gram detonating cord or greater core load.
Innopak products are detonator sensitive down to an internal temperature of -20 °C
Do not use Innopak products to prime bulk loaded heavy ANFOs or emulsion blends.
Consult with a BME Technical Representative for additional priming and initiation guidance.
Maximum hole depth depends on product selection, hole diameter, product densities, and the presence of water. Please contact a BME Technical Representative for additional guidance.
This product may be used in ground temperatures from 0 ° to a maximum of 65 °C. If the application requires use outside of this temperature range please contact a BME Technical Representative for additional guidance.
This product is not formulated for use in reactive ground. Reactive ground is typically characterised by the presence of sulphide mineralization. Innopak cartridges should not be slit or tamped in the presence of sulphide reactive ground. If the application requires use in known reactive ground, or in untested sulphide bearing ground, please contact a BME Technical Representative for additional guidance.
Innopak products must be stored in an approved Class 1.1 D magazine with adequate ventilation.
Innopak products are best stored at temperatures above –20 °C.
Innopak products typically have a minimum shelf life of 1-year under correct storage conditions.
Please consult with a BME Technical Representative for additional guidance.
Innopak detonator sensitive emulsions are packaged in robust coloured PMP film cartridges. Innopak cartridges are packed in 25 kg fibreboard cases. Case cartridge count is based on a nominal product density of 1.14 g/cm³.
