Hazmat Kit Rapidly Identifies Hazardous Chemicals Using Colorimetric Gas Detection Tubes

Clearwater, FL, November 30, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Sensidyne's Hazmat III Reponse kit is the ideal tool for quickly identifying hazardous substances from unknown airborne compounds. Using two special multi-layered qualitative detector tubes and a unique color-based ID chart, the Hazmat III Response system can identify about 70 hazardous organic and inorganic chemicals in about 3 minutes. If follow-up testing is needed, the kit contains additional detector tubes that can be used to further qualify and quantify the initial test results.

The Sensidyne Deluxe Hazmat III Response Kit is fast, rugged, light weight, and simple to use. Because it requires no user calibration or electrical power, the Hazmat Kit is always ready for action and can go anywhere on a moment's notice - the ideal first response tool for hazardous chemical identification.

With single-stroke, multi-layered detector tubes (two for organic gases, & one for inorganic gases). A one-stroke sample with each tube is all that is needed. Tube layers change color when exposed to hazardous chemicals-different colors for different chemicals. Use the color text chart to rapidly identify the unknown chemical based on the color combination of the layers.

You can customize your Sensidyne Deluxe Hazmat 3 Kit for just about any type of hazardous spill situation. The case has room for up to 40 boxes of tubes, with more than 250 additional detector tubes to choose from.
