НХ-10-1,5

The НХ-10-1,5 electric igniter belongs to electric igniters with a nichrome bridgewire. It consists of a bridgewire soldered to the ends of two insulated wires and a drop of ignition composition (TNRS) applied to the bridgewire and covered with a waterproofing layer. To protect against mechanical damage, the bridgewire with the drop is housed in a plastic sleeve. It is used in fuzes and demolition devices.
