Bomb containment vessels are used for transporting and storing explosives, as well as containing explosions.
Typically, containment vessels are spherical or rectangular units with an external shell and a series of reinforcements and shock-absorbing materials between the shells.
Containment vessels contain and absorb an explosion, accidental or intentional, to prevent damage to people, structures, or the surrounding environment.
In operation, when a hazardous object such as an explosive device is located, a shielded containment system is moved to the location and the object is inserted into the interior area.
Once the door is closed and the latch in the locked position, the containment system is moved to a remote location for safe disposal, storage or inspection.
If a hazardous object explodes or releases harmful agents or materials, the bomb container contains the harmful agents or materials in the interior area and prevent them from causing harm to the operator or other people in the area.
