Portable Chemical Agents Detector

           Home

This portable chemical contamination control device used to detect chemical agents G (GA, GB, GD, GF,…), VX and HD in the form of vapor or aerosols.

 

The Detector is particularly suitable for military use in rough conditions: fast turn on, immediate identification and measurement, single-handed operation, simplicity of use, ability to be turned off without precautions…

 

The Detector is a flame spectrophotometer. Air containing toxic agents is drawn in and burned to a high temperature in a hydrogen burner. The elements emit rays in their spectral characteristic emissions.

The Detector detects the atoms of phosphorus (contained in G, V agents) and sulfur (contained in HD, V agents).

 

CHARACTERISTICS:

SPECIAL APPLICATION:

When the Alarm Box is connected with the Detector, this set becomes the APACC (portable chemical control and alarm device) for chemical agents: G (GA, GB, GD, GF…),VX (A4), HD. The Alarm Box is fitted to the Detector in place of the battery tray. However, the Detector can still be used at any time as a monitor device for chemical contamination.

 

The APACC provides an alarm for a predefined dose of toxic agents.

This dose equals the quantity of toxic that induces a disease. It is calculated by the APACC: the detector adds the values resulting from the multiplication of the detected instantaneous concentration by the elapsed time.

 

There is a visible alarm (the red indicator lights up) and an audible alarm (the buzzer sounds).

Holding down the push button on the Alarm Box for 6 seconds resets it.

 

The information can be relayed up to 400 meters via an alarm deport box using a RS 485 twisted pair link, and up to 1000 meters using a shielded cable via a surveillance station.
