RP-80 EBW Detonator
P/N 188-7042
The RP-80 detonator is a standard end lighting detonator. It is housed in an aluninum cup to provide sealing and strength to the explosive charge. It can be purchased without the cup as P/N 167- 9964. It is capable of detonating compressed TNT and other similar explosives.

| Caution: While EBW and EFI Initiators are inherently less susceptible to accidental detonation during handling and set-up than devices containing primary explosives, electrical and electronic firing systems are sensitive to transient electrical energies which could cause premature triggering or firing. The blasting area must be clear of personnel and equipment before the detonator leads are connected to any RISI Firing System. Only approved RISI Firing Systems should ever be used to initiate or detonate any explosive product manufactured and authorized for sale by RISI. |
