The AP2C is particularly suitable for military use in rough conditions : fast turn on, immediate identification and measurement, single handed operation, simplicity of use, can be turned off without precautions... The AP2C is a flame spectrophotometer. Air containing toxic agents is drawn in and heated to a high temperature in a hydrogen burner. The elements emits rays in their spectral characteristic emissions. The AP2C detect the atoms of phosphorus (contained in G,V agents) and sulphur (contained in HD,V agents). The S4PE is used in conjunction with the AP2C to detect persitent chemical agents VX HD or G agents In liquid form. These toxics agents, which do not give off any vapour, are collected by the S4PE. The S4PE has a scraper which adsorbs the toxic agent by simple contact with any contaminated surface. When the sample has been taken, the scraper is positionned in the AP2C tube and heated to vaporize the toxic agents which can then be detected by the AP2C. The AP2C can be used for liquids with the same advantages as for vapours : fast turn on, immediate identification and measurement, single handed operation, simplicity of use, can be turned off whitout precautions... A medical tube is also available to be used with the S4PE for detecting persistents chemicals directly on a wounded person's skin. The Collective Unit AP2C includes: 1 AP2C 2 hydrogen storage devices 2 AP2C batteries 1 spare sampling nozzle 1 S4PE: persistent substances sampling system 2 S4PE batteries 1 box of 10 sampling scrapers 1 S4PE sampling tube 1 box of 10 test scrapers 1 buzzer 1 technical guide The equipment is packaged in a fitted black transport case. The HAWK is a highly reliable infrared detector for stand-off detection of chemical agent clouds. All known CWAs and important Toxic Industrial Chemicals (TICs) are automatically monitored. The lightweight system can be mounted on vehicles, ships and helicopters, and performs real-time field screening while underway. Sensor, scanner, electronics and control unit are integrated in one compact housing. The HAWK is based on the proven Bruker RockSolid flex-pivot interferometer, and is resistant to mechanical shocks, vibrations, humidity and extreme temperature differences. It is hardened for field operations in harsh and rugged environments.
