PAN Flashcards
What is the only PAN round you can shoot nitro based dynamite or flash powder with
BK20 at 2-6 inches
What tool is used to take off internally threaded pipe ends
splitter (chisel)
What PAN round is used to take off externally threaded pipe ends
Nitro turkey
Firing slugs are lethal to at least the distance of a
shotgun firing a rifled slug
What is the rear safety zone when firing a PAN
150’
What is the PAN
A precision, percussion actuated non electric disruption tool that is initiated by shock tube
How does the PAN function
Gas pressure from shock tube actuating the firing pin
shotgun shells
How much PSI is required to activate the firing pin
300 psi
How much shock tube is required to obtain 300 psi to activate the firing pin
3 ft
How much shot tube is required to initiate with an electric blasting cap
6 ft
What ways can a PAN disruptor be deployed
solo, in combination with other disruptors, other explosive tools
What advantage does the PAN provide
Precise and reproducible performance for precise, selective timing between disruptors and other tools
What is the overall intended purpose of the PAN
gain access, expose and disrupt the IED
What are the minimum lengths of shock tube required to fire the PAN
3 ft and 6ft with electric initiator
What is the wait time for a PAN misfire
there is no wait time
What shell should be chosen to disrupt a soft package suspected of containing NG based dynamite
BK20
What 2 basic disruption concepts can be accomplished with the use of the PAN
general disruption, precise, surgical
When shooting a package with a water shot what should you target
top 1/3, level barrel, long axis
What is a precursor shockwave
compressed gas expelled from the barrel ahead of the projectile or water
How far can the fireball expelled from the barrel travel after firing your shot
2 ft
What is the recommended standoff distance when using nitro turkey load on a pipe bomb
3 to 18”
What barrel angle is recommended when using the Nitro turkey load on a pipe bomb
10-17 degrees 15 is optimal
What is the recommended aiming point when using the nitro turkey
1/2 to 3/4 inches from the inner edge of the end cap
When testing the firing pin function in the PAN breech how far should the pin move when working correctly
1/16th”
