It is used for remote operation of the Holmatro Door Blaster, an innovative breaching tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remote Breaching<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Wireless Control Set  WCS01 allows you to operate the Door Blaster from a much greater distance. Now you can hide further away from the door and activate the door opener from as safer position. The new set comes in addition to the existing remote control, which is mounted on a 2 m. \/ 79 in. hose as part of the Door Blaster Pack, the drive unit.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wireless Operation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The new set consists of a battery-powered receiver and a control unit. The receiver is connected to the drive unit which remains near the door. The control unit is used to activate the Door Blaster\u2019s breaching and quick-release functions. This can be done from a distance up to 100 m. \/ 328 ft. The set has a stand-by mode of 48 hours. The receiver\u2019s connection cable is also used to charge its battery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
