Usage of improper armatures in magazines could result in misfires.
2.9 Capacitor
The EMG-02 contains a large electrolytic capacitor at the rear which is used as a
buttstock for the accelerator. The capacitor is attached to the barrel by two large copper bus-
bars internal to the unit. The capacitor is capable of delivering several thousand amperes in
burst current.
There are two electrical safety mechanisms within the gun which protect the capacitor
from reverse bias and overvoltage, and an internal burst valve near the fuse cover in case both
safeties were to fail or physical damage to the capacitor resulted in pressure buildup.
If the capacitor becomes dented, gouged, or deeply scratched we recommend
discontinuing to use the EMG-02 and contact Arcflash Labs for repairs or assessment. Light
scratches to the capacitor case (the black plastic surrounding the aluminum can) are not
hazardous unless the aluminum can itself is damaged or punctured.
There is no inherent danger to touching or handling the capacitor’s exterior shell so long
as there is no apparent physical damage to the capacitor or to the EMG-02.
The capacitors require approximately 6 seconds to charge during power-up and 6
seconds to discharge during power-down.
