Description
Rugged, relentless and reliable is what you get with the Marco 6.0 Cubic Foot C-Series Blast
Pot. The 60 degree Toriconical bottom allows for smooth flow of media to the reliable Regulator
Metering Valve. The 6.0 C-Series Blast Pots is rated at 125 psi working pressure for use with
most of today's compressors, providing proven productivity. Portability is made easy with
Heavy-duty 16" Wheels or Lifting Lugs for use with mechanical lifting devices. The pneumatic
or electric remote control system mounted on the side of the vessel provides easy access to the
control valves and a width of only 35" allows for transport through most standard doorways.
The C-Series Blast Pot features our most popular remote control; the KwikFire 125 System, the
proven metering capability of the Regulator Metering Valve, making this blast pot reliable and
easy to use!

• Built in accordance with ASME Pressure Vessel Code
• 150 psi working pressure for increased productivity
• 90 degree Toriconical bottom allows smooth flow of media
• Overall width of 35" fits through standard doorways
• Heavy-duty 16" Wheels and Lifting Lugs for easy portability
• Powder coat finish to withstand harsh environments
• Dimensions: Overall Height: 54" Width: 35" Depth: 35" Weight: 390 pounds
Operational Requirements
The following may cause safety hazards or reduced performance:
• Improper installation and/or maintenance of components
• Failure to place Blast Pot on a secure, flat surface
• Improper air supply pressure (minimum 50 psi, maximum 150 psi)
• Incorrect lifting/transporting of Blast Pot or incorrect or worn lifting devices
Operating Instructions (Figure 2)
Before using:
• Inspect Pop Up Valve Seat (1) and Pop Up Valve (2) for damage. Replace damaged
components before use.
• Inspect Muffler Assembly (3) as instructed in the device's Operator’s Manual.
• Inspect Remote Control System components as instructed in the device's Operator’s Manual.
• Inspect Pusher Line (6) for damage. Replace damaged components before use.
• Inspect Blast Pot for damage. Do not use Blast Pot if damaged.
• Locate Blast Pot on an even, flat surface that can withstand the weight of a full Blast Pot. Be
aware of possible erosion of surface and load shifting.
• Connect air supply hose from compressor to inlet (4) of the Blast Pot. To provide best
performance, an air supply hose with an inner diameter five to six times the size of blast
nozzle orifice is recommended.
• Connect blast hose to coupling installed on Metering Valve (5).

6.0 Cubic Foot C-Series Blast Pot
OSHA requires blast-cleaning
nozzles be equipped with an
operating valve, which shall be
designed to be held open only
by continuous hand pressure
and shall close immediately
upon release of hand pressure
(i.e., a "deadman" control).
The valve shall not be modified
in any manner that would
allow it to remain open without
the application of continuous
hand pressure by the operator.
Failure to comply with the
above warning could result in
release of high speed media
and compressed air resulting
in death or serious injury.
OSHA 29CFR 1910.244(b)
Never weld, grind or drill
on the Blast Pot (or any
pressure vessel). Doing so
will void ASME certification
and manufacturer’s warranty.
Welding, grinding or drilling on
the Blast Pot (or any pressure
vessel) could weaken the
vessel causing it to burst.
Failure to comply with the
above warning could result
in death or serious injury.
(ASME Pressure Vessel Code,
Section VIII, Division 1)
Inspect all equipment for
wear or damage before and
after each use. Failure to
use Original Equipment
Manufacturer repair parts and
failure to immediately replace
worn or damaged components
could void warranties and
cause malfunctions. Failure to
comply with the above warning
could result in death or serious
injury.
