1-5 CANNON
The HydroBlast cannon P/N 02007100MG is constructed of silicone bronze with industrial
grade bearings and seals making it suitable for dusty and corrosive environment applications.
It is specially designed for severe duty cycles. Unique waterway swivel joints utilize stainless
steel thrust rods and needle roller thrust bearings for unprecedented durability in mining and
construction applications. The monitor can be controlled by hardwired input devices via CAN
bus. The monitor may be powered with 12-24 VDC.
High power, permanent magnet variable speed DC gear motors that drive the horizontal and
vertical motions are NEMA 4 rated for use in harsh environments. The HydroBlast monitor
has a flow efficient 2¼" vaned waterway to minimize turbulence and provide superior nozzle
streams. The water supply connection in the monitor base is a 2½" female national pipe
thread, and the discharge nozzle connection has a 2½" national hose male thread.
The HydroBlast monitors come with Absolute Position Feedback sensors. These sensors
provide constant feedback to the onboard control module processor, even when the monitor
is moved via manual override, to ensure accurate location of monitor position at all times.
