FirstDefender RM

FirstDefender RM is an all-optical Raman system designed for use by first responders, homeland security, military, law enforcement and forensic chemistry personnel. Significant enhancements have been made in speed, performance, mixture analysis and user interface.

Key features

• Quickly identifies unknown solid and liquid chemicals down range including explosives, toxic industrial chemicals (TICs), chemical warfare agents (CWAs), narcotics, precursors, white powders and more
• Mixture analysis automatically determines presence of mixed and contaminated chemicals
• Weighs 800g (1.8 lbs) for easy transportation down range
• Certified to MIL-STD 810G standards for ruggedness and environmental protection to IP67 standards against dust and water up to one meter
• Point-and-Shoot identification enables analysis directly through sealed glass or plastic containers, avoiding exposure to potentially harmful substances; integrated vial holder offers alternative sampling method
• Menu driven user interface requires minimal training
• No scheduled maintenance or calibration
• Non-destructive testing maintains sample integrity
• Powered using rechargeable battery; wall plug; or commonly available SureFire disposable batteries
• Fully operable over a wide temperature range (-20°C to +40°C)
• Integrated NIOSH and CAMEO database provides detailed hazard data on scene
• 24/7 technical and reach back support provided for all units

TruNarc™ Handheld Narcotics Identification System

Lightweight and easy to use, the TruNarc device delivers fast and accurate narcotics analysis anywhere it's needed. It easily identifies narcotics, stimulants, depressants, hallucinogens and analgesics using lab-proven Raman spectroscopy. The TruNarc device is able to analyse key drugs of abuse as well as common cutting agents, precursors and emerging threats — ensuring that law enforcement personnel are always ahead of the curve.

Once a substance is analysed, full results are automatically captured for reporting and evidence. Rapid results combined with automated reports can streamline the path to prosecution, reducing administrative burden and dramatically impacting the time and expense of drug-related arrests.

Key Features

• Fast, accurate identification
• Based on lab-proven Raman spectroscopy
• Easy to use
• Intuitive menu-driven interface enables fast training and proficiency
• Single test, multiple narcotics
• Non-contact sampling
• Scans directly through plastic or glass to minimise contamination, reduce exposure and preserve evidence
• Automated, tamper-proof records
