Blast Machine Systems
• Rugged • Reliable • Proven
Fifty years of reliable field service have made Clemco
blast machines the preferred equipment for industrial blasting
and painting contractors.
Clemco machines are built tough to survive the real world.
With wear-parts positioned for quick replacement, Clemco
blast machines virtually eliminate downtime, so they spend
more time at the job site; less time in the shop.
Choose from 1/2-cu. ft. to 20-cu. ft. capacity, in portable or
stationary models — blast machine only or machine package.
Take the guesswork out of buying a blast machine by
ordering a complete system. Clemco’s complete systems
include the blast machine, remote controls, nozzle, couplings,
blast hose, Apollo helmet, air filter, and spare parts kit —
everything but the compressed air and abrasive.
Clemco’s smaller
machines are light,
transportable, and
industrial quality.

Accessories
Clemco’s fully equipped
and accessorized
packages are designed
to meet a wide range of
job requirements.
BLAST MACHINE CONSTRUCTION
• ASME-coded pressure vessels.
• Concave head stores abrasive for loading.
• Conical bottom ensures smooth abrasive flow and
complete emptying.
• Large inspection door for access to the interior.
• Wear-resistant urethane-coated pop-up valve seals
tight and lasts longer.
Model 3658
10 cubic foot capacity
BLAST MACHINES FOR SPECIAL APPLICATIONS
All our special machines feature the same quality construction, plus unique features for special applications.
Clemco 6 cubic foot Lo-Pot is for contractors who need a
full-capacity machine that’s not too tall. Lo-Pots use a special
low-profile metering valve and a more shallow head to
achieve an overall height of just 43 inches.
• Easy to load
• Easy to store
Stationary models are
suitable for industrial
use in blast rooms or for
other applications
requiring a large
volume, yet economical,
blast machine. Stationary machines adapt to
fixed sites or to custom
truck (or trailer)
mounted systems.

Pneumatic remote control systems
offer safe, efficient operation of the

system, pressing the handle, pressurizes
the machine to start blasting; releasing
the handle depressurizes the machine
and stops blasting.

Classic Clemco blast machines
offer users a choice of metering valves
to suit their application. Small blast
machines, 1 cu ft or smaller, are
equipped with Clemco's MSV, a valve
suited for expendable media. On larger
machines, Clemco's tried and true FSV
is the work-horse of the industry; it
offers reliable service with garnet, slag,
and similar expendable media.
The Sentinel is suited for all
common abrasives; and is available
with an optional urethane-coated
metering plate to ensure optimal flow
with fine-mesh media.
The metering valves on Clemco’s
high-production Classic blast machines
feed abrasive into the airstream at 45
degrees. This feature offers many
benefits:
• Minimizes wear on fittings.
• Ensures a smoother, more
consistent abrasive flow.
• Precisely machined plates meter
the abrasive from barely a
trickle to wide open.
• Plates (the primary wear component) can be replaced quickly
with standard tools.
• Clean-out plate to remove
obstructions without opening
the pressure vessel.
The Clemco Sentinel has a pneumatic actuator that operates separately
from the metering valve. The actuator
plunger completely withdraws from the
abrasive flow to prevent wear. The failsafe actuator stops abrasive flow
instantly if air or electric power is
interrupted.
The Sentinel can be configured for
pressure-release or pressure-hold and
works with pneumatic and electric
systems.
All remote control systems with
Sentinel valve include control-handlemounted abrasive cut-off switch (ACS)
to allow the operator to shut off the
abrasive flow and blow off the surface
with air only.

NOTE:
MSV, FSV, and Lo-Pot abrasive metering valves are suitable for blasting with mineral and slag expendable media. The Sentinel metering valve
handles all common media including steel grit.
** 10 cu. ft. machines manufactured before 1986 use different pop-up valve and seat. Consult your Clemco distributor for details.
Remote Controls:
Remote control systems have valves matched in size to the blast machine piping. Remote Control System styles vary to suit the blasting operation
or application. Pneumatic Remote Controls work best with blast hose lengths up to 100 ft.; and Electric Remotes, powered electro-pneumatically, are
for hose lengths greater than 100 ft.

Pressure-Release with Abrasive Cut-off: Allows the operator to stop the flow
of abrasive to blow off the surface after blasting.
Pressure-Hold Remotes: Keep the blast machine under pressure for frequent
starting and stopping by the operator for repositioning.
