Clemco Big Clem multi-outlet,
bulk abrasive blast machines are
rugged, reliable, and efficient.
Designed for large jobs, where
multiple blast operators are
needed, the Big Clem offers the
convenience of a large supply of
abrasive, loaded at one time,
ensuring more blast on time, and
saving the time and labor of
refilling smaller machines.
Big Clems are available in three
standard sizes: 60, 120, and 160
cubic feet abrasive capacity and,
depending upon the model, for
up to four blast operators. Units
are rated 150 psi working
pressure. Each model is available
as stationary, yard towable, or
highway towable to suit the
application.
Each operator station is fitted
with Auto-Quantum (pneumatic
or electric) pressure-hold remote
controls, which allow each
operator to start and stop
independent of the others. The
Quantum is an all-media valve,
making it possible to switch
between expendable mineral or
slag abrasives to steel grit as
necessary. Pneumatic remote
controls are best when the blast
hose is 100 feet or shorter;
beyond 100 feet electric remotes
are recommended to minimize
the response time at the nozzle
for beginning or stopping
blasting.

Standard Features:
N 150 psi working pressure; 1-1/4” piping.
N Vertically-adjustable bolt on hitch.
N Hose support bracket allows storing blast
hose.
N 2 outlets, pneumatic pressure-hold remote
controls.
N Heavy-duty lifting eyes mounted on the
vessel ease transport.
N Abrasive cut-off feature on the remote
controls allows work surface blow-off.
N Large, built-in 1600 CFM moisture
separator/manifold helps to reduce moisture, a
naturally-occurring by-product of compressed
air. Supports up to four No. 8 nozzles.
N Fail-to-safe, normally-closed, all-media
Auto-Quantum abrasive metering valve that is
easy to operate and requires little
maintenance.
N Flexible pusher lines and ball valves simplify air valve and metering valve maintenance.
N Union-type media shut-off valves allow servicing individual metering valves leaving other s
operational. Generous clearance below vessel
provides accessibiblity for valve maintenance.
N Automatic pop-up filling valve, with debris
screen, and swing-open rain cap—the safest
option on the market—eliminates the potential
for injury possible on units with camlock
closures.
N Large 12-inch x 16-inch man-way permits
access to pressure vessel chamber for
maintenance service.
N Ladder allows easy access to pop-up valve
for machine filling.
N Three standard configurations:
Stationary models; for fixed installation are
ideal for industrial applications.
Yard-towable models; offer increased flexibility
for moving the unit on site; and
Highway-towable models; are the most versatile offering the convenience of towing the
machine to the job site.
Options:
N 1-1/2” piping; suggested for No. 8 nozzles and
required for No. 10 and No.12 nozzles.
N Electric remote option includes weather-proof
control panel and anti-freeze injector capability.
N Additional outlets are optional; up to four on
120 and 160 cuft models
N Optional 160 cuft off-shore model with fullload lifting eyes and integral base for
