AP4C Chemical Detector

Chemical Warfare (CW) Agent Detector for Toxic Industrial Materials (TIMs) and Toxic Industrial Compounds (TICs)

AP4C Chemical Detector by Proengin

Part # M 910 E00 003

This hand-held, portable monitoring and detection unit is used by military, civil defense, and environmental agencies. The AP4C is a portable chemical contamination control device used to detect: All Nerve Agents, Blood Agents, Blister Agents and many TIC’s and TIM’s.

The AP4C is a flame spectrophotometer for gas detection.

A continuous stream of air is burned in a combustion chamber (called a burner), which has a constant supply of hydrogen. The resultant spectra are passed through a diffraction grating and then projected on to a strip array. The resultant signals are processed to distinguished individual elements contained in the sample.

Use Specifications

The AP4C is particularly suitable for Military use in rough conditions
