Short-Cycle™ Blasters are designed to withstand the punishing effects of quick on-off blasting while retaining the convenience of a pressure release system. Standard pressure release (SPR) blasters are great for blast room use because when paired with an overhead abrasive hopper, they can be refilled by simply releasing the control handle and allowing the blaster to depressurize and automatically fill.
Unfortunately, when blasting frequently for less than 10 minutes at a time, abrasive can overfill the blaster, damaging the pop-up and causing it not to seal properly. This causes abrasive to “burp” from around the pop-up and eventually ruin the metering valve. Pirate Brand® Short-Cycle™ blasters overcome this issue by remaining pressurized when the control handle is released and feature a remote blow-down button to allow you to depressurize/refill your blaster without leaving the blast room.
