M8 Chemical Agent Detector Paper
|
|
OVERVIEW:
The M8 Chemical Agent Detector Paper from TRUETECH is used to detect the presence of liquid nerve (V and G types) and blister (H-) chemical agents.
DESCRIPTION:
Each page in the M8 booklet has three sensitive, indicator dyes suspended in the paper matrix. When a sheet is brought into contact with liquid nerve or blister agents, the indicator dyes in the paper react with the agents present to produce an agent-specific color change.
There is a color chart inside the front cover of the booklet to help identify the type of agent that is detected. The colors indicate the following:
- Dark Green - V-type Nerve Agents
- Yellow - G-type Nerve Agents
- Red - H-type Blister Agents
USE:
M8 is best used by tearing out a sheet and attaching it to clothing, or some other surface so it can be exposed to drops of chemical liquid splash. The paper may also be used by placing it in contact with a liquid that is suspected of contamination. If colored spots appear, a chemical agent is present.
M8 Paper cannot be used to detect chemical agents in water, or aerosol agents in the air. It does not detect vapors. It is best suited for non-porous materials.
In 2009, the State of California’s FIRESCOPE Standardized Equipment List (see page 20, Section 1.1.9) listed the M8 Paper as a required item for emergency and Hazmat first responders.
PRODUCT DETAILS:
The M8 Paper is issued in a book of 25 sheets. The sheets are perforated for easy removal. The book is heat-sealed in a polyethylene envelope.
M8 Paper can be purchased in a box of 50 books, or by the case. A case includes 20 boxes, of 50 books, or 1000 books total.
