General Specifications
The gas analyzer of explosives Pilot-M1 Premium is intended for the detection of explosives in non-tight volumes and traces of explosives on a surface of surveyed objects. Detection is carried out by sampling air from internal volumes of surveyed objects or from their surfaces and the analysis of tests on contents of characteristic components of explosive vapor.
The detector is capable to detect traces of explosives based on nitroglycerine (NG), EGDN, trinitrotoluene (tol, trotyl, TNT), hexogen, octogen, TEN, PENT (tetranitrapentaerythrit, pentaerythrittetranitrate, Pentrit, PENT), hexogen (RDX), oktogen (HMX), tetryl (Tetril) and nitrocellulose powders, engaging mixing explosives on their ground: Semtex and other plastic and elastic explosives on the basis of RDX, PENT or their mixture.
Distinctive features:
- Drift spectrometer with ionogram output on the computer.
- Combines high sensitivity, selectivity, and noise immunity.
- Wide range of detected explosives.
- Stable operation in a wide range of environmental humidity and temperature.
- The operation threshold of the detector is adjustable depending on the surroundings.
- Provides sound and visual (on the display) indication of the presence of explosive vapors.
- Battery discharge indication.
- Does not contain radioactive sources.
- Does not require a high level of operator training.
- Does not require periodical adjustment and setup procedures.
- Does not require a special gas supply.
The signal level and ionogram of the test are displayed on the color graphic display of the device. The position of the ‘peak’ of the ionogram makes it possible to draw a preliminary conclusion regarding detected explosives. Device’s memory stores information about more than a million ionograms.
PILOT-M1 Premium delivery set contains an interface cable (USB or RS-232) that ensures data transfer to PC and data storage. A skilled operator is able to identify the type of explosive detected using an ionogram displayed in the monitor.
