Underwater Time Delay Fuses

DESCRIPTION

Underwater Time Delay Fuses UTDF-3M and UTDF-2B are designed to initiate various types of underwater charges.

The fuse UTDF-2B contains 50 g RDX and is intended for a direct detonation of underwater charges. It has a shaped charge able to penetrate 20mm steel in order to detonate underwater explosives inside unexploded ordnance (mines, torpedoes, bombs, artillery shells and others). An adapter consisting of magnets ensures the stable fixation of the fuse to the target.

The fuse UTDF-3M initiates a “Nonel” shock tube detonator through Primer No 8.

Each fuse is provided with a soluble transportation safety lock in the fire circuit, which ensures safety during assembly and programming.

The activation of the fuses is controlled by a microprocessor.
