1 DESCRIPTION

The FLAMEBLAZER is a special eects machine for controlled emission of ame jets

into the air in a xed direction.

The machine uses specic ammable fuels that are projected from a single outlet

across spark ignition probes to produce the ame jet. An integrated electric pump

draws the fuel from the 5 L can and generates the ring pressure.

There are three nozzles available with the FLAMEBLAZER which are interchangeable,

allowing the user to choose a small, medium or large ame. Based on zero wind the

sizes are as follows:

• L nozzle, up to 10 m (included);

• S nozzle, up to 6 m (accessory);

• M nozzle, up to 8 m (accessory).

A specic nozzle exchange tool is available to change between the S, M and L

nozzles (SFX 1404)

The FLAMEBLAZER is operated with DMX and RDM, or with an external low voltage

pyro controller (9-40 Vdc). The FLAMEBLAZER can be operated in sequence with

multiple machines. Furthermore, the FLAMEBLAZER is congured for safety control with

an ARM SYSTEM.

1.2 FLAMEBLAZER FUEL

The FLAMEBLAZER uses two types of fuel to create the eect. The fuel is loaded into an

ADR Can 5 L located in the machine.

NOTICE Only use these types of fuel: Isopropanol, ISOPAR G, H & L. The use

of other fuels or water may degrade the performance of the

machine or cause internal damage.

CAUTION Fuels are highly ammable and must be handled with caution

and in accordance with local health and safety regulations.

Always follow the safety instructions from the fuel packaging

when handling and working with the fuel.

1.6 ARM CONTROL

NOTICE The FLAMEBLAZER cannot be operated without connection to an

ARM CONTROLLER in an ARM SYSTEM.

The FLAMEBLAZER is congured for safety control with an ARM SYSTEM. The

FLAMEBLAZER cannot be operated without the safety signal from the control unit of

the ARM SYSTEM: The ARM CONTROLLER. When there’s no signal, the internal relief

valve opens. The system depressurises immediately and prevents the FLAMEBLAZER to

produce any high-risk SFX output. As a result, any related hazard/or property

damage is stopped and prevented.

The ARM CONTROLLER is equipped with a key switch to arm/disarm the connected

SFX machine(s), an emergency stop button, and a reset button. The ARM SYSTEM is

wired with EtherCON cables that carry the safety signal from the ARM CONTROLLER.

For more information about the ARM SYSTEM and to learn how to congure a

complete safety system, refer to the ARM SYSTEM Conguration Manual (PART02323).

For more information about the ARM CONTROLLER and to learn how to correctly set

up and use the ARM SYSTEM, refer to the ARM CONTROLLER User and Installation

Manual (PART01882).
