Radio-safe detonator
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003039
A type of detonator designed to be insensitive to stray electromagnetic radiation, such as radio frequency signals. This feature reduces the risk of accidental initiation of perforating charges during well operations, enhancing safety. These detonators typically incorporate shielding or specific electrical characteristics to prevent unintended firing.
