GAZEX™ / GAZFLEX™
Stationary avalanche control system
Strengths
#1 Controlled results and efficiency
Available 24/7 in all weather conditions, the system can quickly be primed (less than two minutes for each blast) to deliver a powerful explosion in the air above the snowpack. The system can be fired as often as required and at any time.
#2 Safety and risk control
No human involvement is needed in the avalanche zone and no explosives need to be handled, meaning that this fully remote-controlled solution can be installed in any
hard-to-reach areas. All personnel are kept out of harm’s way.
