Overview

The Pirate Brand® 6.5 cu ft Short-Cycle Stationary Electric Blast Pot delivers unmatched control and consistency for high-frequency, short-duration blasting.
Equipped with the Short-Cycle Pressure Release System, APV II (Tungsten Carbide Sleeve & Combination Valve), and a 12VDC Electric Control System, this model is designed to maintain pressure between blast cycles—offering faster restarts, reduced downtime, and superior sealing performance.

This configuration is ideal for blast rooms, industrial cleaning, and high-cycle production environments where operators require reliability and efficiency during quick on-off operations.

Short-Cycle System Advantage

Standard pressure-release (SPR) systems automatically depressurize when blasting stops—convenient for long sessions, but prone to overfilling when blasting in short intervals.
The Short-Cycle System Saver solves this problem by keeping the vessel pressurized until the palm-button blow-down control is activated. This prevents abrasive overfill and pop-up seal damage, extending equipment life and maintaining smooth operation.

Key advantages include:

• Faster start/stop cycles with minimal lag.

• Reduced risk of overfilling and abrasive “burping.”

• Consistent vessel pressure for optimal media flow.

• Enhanced safety and control for confined blast rooms.

Key Features & Benefits

• Short-Cycle Pressure Release System – Maintains pressurization between cycles and depressurizes instantly via palm-button activation.

• 12VDC Electric Controls – Provides fast, responsive operation for long hose runs and cold-weather reliability.

• APV II (Automatic Plunger Valve II) – Tungsten carbide plunger and sleeve offer superior wear resistance and consistent metering accuracy.

• Combination Valve Design – Two-in-one system stops airflow and relieves vessel pressure automatically when activated.

• Big Gun Full Flow System – Delivers a zero-pressure-drop pathway, maximizing productivity (1 PSI = 1.5% production gain).

• 1-1/2″ Galvanized Piping – Corrosion-resistant for long-term industrial use.

• Heavy-Duty Moisture Separator – Removes moisture to prevent clogs and maintain smooth abrasive flow.

• Union End Ball Valves – Enable maintenance or valve servicing without dumping the pot.

• 9″ Adjustable Spider – Keeps abrasive load balanced and ensures proper pop-up sealing with multiple media types.

• Skirted Pop-Up Gasket – Knifes through abrasive buildup to prevent leaks and improve sealing reliability.

• Full Load Lifting Eyes – Safe, easy vessel transport and maintenance positioning.
