Overview
The Martin Engineering 36756 Big Blaster Air Cannon is a high-pressure pneumatic device engineered for material flow assistance and blockage prevention in bulk handling systems. This high-pressure air cannon is designed for use in various industrial applications. It delivers controlled bursts of compressed air to dislodge material buildup, prevent rat-holing, and enhance the flow of bulk solids through silos, bins, and storage vessels.
Key Features
- Compact, self-contained design for easy installation on storage vessels
- Quiet but powerful discharge mechanism for continuous operation
- Reliable performance in dust-laden and harsh industrial environments
- Minimal maintenance requirements compared to mechanical vibrators
- Compatible with standard plant compressed air systems
Technical Specifications
Specific technical data for this model is available upon request from Martin Engineering. Standard Martin Big Blaster models typically operate at compressed air pressures between 80–100 PSI, though exact specifications for part 36756 should be verified with the manufacturer or your system integrator.
Typical Applications
- Cement kilns and pre-heaters
