Structure

The VZD-1M explosive consists of a housing with a membrane, a cap, a piercing mechanism and a MD-5M fuse. The principle of operation is similar to the VZD-3M. The explosive is equipped with six replaceable metal elements No. 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8, of which No. 6 is inserted into the explosive, the rest are placed in a bag placed in a case. The VZD-1M explosive: a — general view b — section 1 — cover 2 — cutter 3 — metal element 4 — check 5 — sleeve 6 — threaded sleeve 7 — striker 8 — mainspring 9 — housing 10 — membrane 11 — MD-5M fuse

Operating Principle

After the check is pulled out, the cutter, under the action of the mainspring, cuts the metal element. After cutting the metal element, the striker is released and pierces the primer-fuse of the fuse with its sting, causing it to explode.

Installation Method

The handling of the explosive is the same as with the VZD-3m, only during installation in the mine it is forbidden to screw the explosive without a safety check. The check is removed after the mine is installed on the object.
