4. Description of the A/C AIR LAUNCHER
TM
The user has the ability to produce a spectacular simulated fireworks display, outdoors,
without the risk of fire! When loaded properly, this device will safely propel tissue
streamers and/or tissue (not paper) confetti to distances of up to 100’ in the air! The end
result resembles a cascading display of daytime firework-like effects. Note: due to wind
resistance and low weight, confetti will not travel as far as streamers. The included 7-
gallon air tank must be filled from an air compressor or be connected into a constant
replenishing CO
2
air cylinder tank (available from your local gas supplier), eliminating the
need for manual refills. The CO
2
air tank makes it economically feasible to do continuous
reloads and refills for places like circuses or theme parks. The A/C Air Launcher™
features a built-in safety release, two types of filling valves, a pressure gauge, and an
electric release solenoid valve (1/2" high-volume type). The launcher fires as soon as it
is plugged in, or if connected to an electrical switchbox, as soon as it is switched on.
Launcher comes with a 24VAC solenoid valve and 120VAC/240VAC, 24V transformer.
