Press Release Summary:
In addition to Chemical, Biological, and Radiation detection instruments, CBRN Detection Kit includes training and field exercises. SAM Defender radiation detection module uses algorithms to identify unknown isotopes and provide reachback with analytical data, while ChemIMS open-loop Ion Mobility System detects and identifies potentially hazardous chemicals. Open-Loop IMS does not require desiccant filters or molecular sieves, minimizing clear-down times.

New CBRN KIT Combines Industry Leading Equipment with Training Program
August 11, 2007 -- As requirements in law enforcement, hazardous materials and CBRN detection grow, many agencies are required to undertake additional responsibilities in CBRN detection and threat deterrence. Princeton Gamma Tech Instruments (Princeton, NJ) is providing a CBRN detection kit with the latest in Chemical, Biological and Radiation Detection instruments. In addition to a suite of products, the PGT CBRN Kit includes comprehensive training and field exercises.
"We are combining products and training synergistically, which fills a need in the CBRN detection field," comments Company President Chris Cox.
The primary radiation detection module is the SAM Defender (see www.berkeleynucleonics.com), an Isotope Identifier using patented algorithms to quickly identify unknown isotopes and provide reachback with analytical data. The primary chemical detection module is the ChemIMS, an Open-Loop Ion Mobility system. Ion Mobility Spectroscopy is an advanced technology used to detect and identify potentially hazardous chemicals. Open-Loop IMS does not require desiccant filters or molecular sieves, drastically reducing life-cycle costs, clear-down times and increasing sensitivity.
