Blast Bin The ordnance disposal blast bin works in a similar way to the Isolation Bin except that the design has been optimised for use by specialist Explosive Ordnance Disposal Crews working on live ordnance disposal on military training areas or in post conflict scenarios. The system is currently deployed by the British Army and being evaluated by the United States Corps of Engineers and the Hong Kong Police and elsewhere. The Blast Bins can be deployed and inflated in under 5 minutes and are capable of suppressing fragmentation arising from most battlefield munitions removing the need to build time consuming sandbag or sand-filled enclosures. In a test undertaken on behalf of the UK MoD, an 81mm mortar was placed and detonated under a Blast Bin. Another mortar was detonated in the open in order to compare the fragment patterns on the witness screens. Pressure readings were also taken. Following the tests, the unprotected witness screen suffered a considerable number of fragment strikes, whereas the witness screen protected using the Blast Bin had very few strikes at all. FSI Water Wall Blast Mitigation Systems A ground breaking concept comprises a range of self inflating, water-filled structures which are capable of providing a high level of protection to people and property against a range of terrorist devices, including those containing chemical, biological and radiological agents. Manufactured from poly-vinyl-chloride (PVC) coated fabric, Waterwall structures are internally reinforced using a specialized stitching technique to effectively maintain shape and stability. Before use, the structures are partially inflated with air to assist with handling and positioning. They are then filled with water, which displaces the air through a pressure relief valve. The time taken to fill each unit varies depending on its size and the pressure of the water supply but typically takes ten minutes or less. The water can then be emptied out and the unit stored for future use. Waterwall products of varying shapes and sizes have been designed to contain and isolate devices ranging in size from a shoe to a car bomb. These include the Mini Hex Bin, Maxi Hex Bin, Blast Bin and Ram Bag. The structural Stability of the Waterwall design may be large enough to enclose a vehicle of up to seven tons. A range of blast panels that can be linked together and rapidly deployed to lessen the impact of explosions for checkpoint security and vehicle search purposes are also available.
