Remote Entry Flashcards
What is one of the main requirements for remote entry?
A non-life threatening situation
Should remote procedure be attempted if the area can not stand a detonation?
No
What is the difference between direct and indirect explosive remote entry?
Direct entry uses explosives directly against a device. Indirect entry uses the energy from the explosives to force another object into the device.
What is the intended purpose of a Disrupter?
To open, disrupt, and/or perform a RSP on a device
How can a MWB system be used?
It can be used as a disablement system by itself or in combination with other disruptive tools
When using the black box with dual mineral water bottles, what are the recommended standoff distances?
Standard Load: 1-4”, Enhanced with C-1: 1-6”, C-4: 1-7”. When using 3 bottles with C-4: 1-11”
What must be used for simultaneous initiation of MWBs?
Equal length of shock tube with an instant shock tube detonator
What two bottle sizes are the normal sizes for use with MWBs?
0.5 liter and 1.5 liter
How many grains of detonating cord does the standard MWB use?
200 grain/foot detonating cord
What does the term used “Enhanced MWB” mean?
It is a term used for either the standard MWB with one wrap of deta sheet or an MWB with the tube filled with C-4 or Demex 100
Can the MWB effectively disrupt packages containing NG based dynamite?
Yes
What are the types of remote entry?
Explosive and Non-Explosive
Does the size of the MWB determine the Standoff?
No the standoff is determined by the explosive load
What is the primary reason a bomb tech should use remote entry on a device?
To avoid unnecessarily risking his life (keep exposure to the device to a minimum)
Purpose of remote entry
Minimizes exposure time and risk of life
