Spider-20 Rental with Paradise Fireworks

Paradise Fireworks, the only black-powder fireworks manufacturer in Canada, recently rented a Spider-20E signal analyzer for some very unique tests. As a licensed explosion testing site in Canada, Paradise Fireworks was called upon to do some important blast testing for natural gas lines that lie beneath the small structures generally found in residential backyards. The goal of these tests was to define and quantify the dangers associated with having small structures (such as hot tubs and sheds) positioned above the junctions in these gas lines. To do this, Paradise would take pressure measurements from each blast using our high precision Spider-20E signal analyzer hardware in conjunction with our EDM DSA software.

Spider-20 Dynamic Signal Analyzer

The fast response time of the Spider-20E and a sampling rate of up to 102.4 kHz and a 24-bit ADC are critical for this kind of test. These features allow the user to obtain high resolution data. Additionally, for more dangerous tests involving explosives, the Spider Black Box mode allows the user to operate the unit autonomously from a safe distance.
