160 Cubic Foot Big Red Series Air-Blast Pot

Always Innovative. Always Reliable.
160 Cubic Foot Big Red Series Air-Blast Pot
Marco's 160 Cubic Foot Big Red Series Air-Blast Pot is the right equipment for large scale industrial air-blasting
projects. Its large abrasive capacity allows up to four operators to air-blast for an extended period of time. The vessel
can be filled with abrasive from a storage hopper, a pneumatic tanker, or bulk bags, reducing the time to fill the
air-blast pot with abrasive. Bulk abrasives cost less than packaged abrasives and require less handling. Big Red
Series Air-Blast Pots are commonly used with slags, steel, garnet, and mined mineral abrasives. Typical applications
for the 160 Cubic Foot Big Red Series Air-Blast Pot include high production applications such as: air-blast rooms,
air-blast yards, shipyards, bridges, oil refineries, and storage tanks.

Safety Enhancements
Marco's patent pending Pneumatic Closure Lockout Device
deters access to the camlocks when the air-blast pot is
pressurized. This safety device comes standard on all
Big Red Series Air-Blast Pots.
» I ncreased production
The 160 cubic foot abrasive capacity allows up to four operators
to air-blast for an extended period of time. The 1-1/2” I.D. pusher
line and a 150 PSI pressure rated vessel allows for higher
blasting pressure at the air-blast nozzle.
»
Simplified Maintenance
The 4” flanged clean-out port at the bottom of the vessel can
be quickly and easily unbolted, reducing time spent cleaning
out abrasive. This design eliminates the hassles and
headaches associated with removing threaded abrasive
clean-out pipe plugs, which commonly have corroded, seized,
or damaged threads.
Individual KwikFire™ 130 Remote Control Systems
allow the operator to identify the source of a problem and
perform maintenance on a single outlet.

bags, a pneumatic tanker, or a storage hopper, reducing the
time to fill the air-blast pot with abrasive.
The 4” flanged clean-out port
at the bottom of the vessel

Offset Overhead Lifting Lugs
The offset position of the four
overhead Lifting Lugs provide easier
access to the camlock closure and
improves balance
when lifting.
Bulk Bag Rack Collars
Big Red Air-Blast Pots come standard
with Bulk Bag Rack Collars for easy
installation of a Bulk Bag Rack.
5-Bolt Camlock Closure
The 5-bolt camlock closure is easier
to maintain than models with internal
working parts, such as a pop-up
valve or an air-actuated valve,
because of less wear and tear on
the components.
1600 CFM Moisture Separator with
Control Box Mounting Bracket
The 1600 CFM moisture separator
has a 3" inlet and a superior Control
Box Mounting Bracket, providing a
solid base for the control box.
Oversized Moisture Separator
Mounting Bracket
The oversized bracket fully
supports the weight of the moisture
separator, substantially reducing
the possibility of damage to the pipe
string, vessel, or moisture separator
during transportation.
Individual KwikFire™ 130 Remote
Control Systems
Individual KwikFire 130 Remote
Control Systems allow the operator
to identify the source of a problem
and perform maintenance on a
single outlet.
Four Oversized Tie-Down Lugs
Tie-down chains and straps can be
easily fed through the four oversized
Tie-Down Lugs, providing a solid
leverage point for securing the
air-blast pot for transportation.
Heavy-Duty Hose Storage Brackets
Two Heavy-Duty Hose Storage
Brackets make storing Air Hose and
Abrasive Blasting Hose simple and
convenient. These Brackets save you
time by keeping your hoses in one
easily accessible location.
Dual Bolt-On Ladders
Dual Bolt-On Ladders with square
rungs are positioned to facilitate
easy access to the camlock closure
on top of the air-blast pot. The
square rungs offer superior traction
over commonly used round rungs.

Actual Thickness
150 PSI Working Pressure
The pressure vessel, built in
accordance with ASME Pressure
Vessel Code to a working pressure
of 150 PSI, allows higher air
pressure at the air-blast nozzle,
increasing production rates.
Vessel Wall Thickness
The 1/2” thick vessel wall is up to
50% thicker than other air-blast pots
on the market, providing extended
vessel life.
Hydraulic Surge Brakes
The Highway Trailer comes standard
with Hydraulic Surge Brakes that do
not require a battery or in-cab brake
controller to operate. A brake bypass
system automatically disengages
the trailer brakes when backing-up,
improving maneuvering time.
Radial-Ply Tires
The Highway and Yard Trailers come
equipped with Radial-Ply Tires with a
load rating of 6,000 lbs. per tire.
» BIG RED SERIES AIR-BLAST POT MOUNTING OPTIONS
Yard Trailer
The Yard Trailer is ideal for applications where mobility
around the work site is required.
Highway Trailer
The Highway Trailer includes hydraulic surge brakes,
fenders, and a DOT approved light package.
Fork-Pocket Skid
The Fork-Pocket Skid allows for ease of movement
around a work site while using a mechanical lifting
device.
Stationary Legs
The 20” Stationary Legs are ideal when the air-blast
pot will be in the same location for an extended period
of time.

Bulk Bag Racks
Abrasive Screen & Funnel
Abrasive Storage Hopper
Bulk Bag Racks simplify and
speed up the abrasive loading
process. Both the Standard
and Heavy-Duty Bulk Bag
Rack designs feature gusset
reinforced legs for superior
balance and four lifting lugs
for moving the rack with
a crane. The Heavy-Duty
design features fork-pockets,
and tapered sides for better
abrasive flow.
The Abrasive Screen
prevents large particles and
debris from entering the
air-blast pot, eliminating
costly downtime spent
unclogging abrasive metering
valves. The Funnel keeps
abrasive from spilling,
reducing clean-up.
Marco’s Abrasive Storage
Hopper provides an
economical option for storing
and loading bulk abrasive.
This abrasive storage and
loading system keeps your
abrasive off the ground
and out of the elements,
protecting your abrasive
from moisture.
