What chemical warfare agents do they detect?
They detect G agents (Sarin, Soman, Tabun) and V agents (VX Gas).
How quickly do they provide results?
They detect airborne CWAs in 2–3 minutes and indicate decreasing concentrations over 5–30 minutes.
Can they test water and food for contamination?
Yes, they can detect CWAs and pesticides in drinking water and food.
Are the strips reusable?
No, each strip is designed for single use only.
Can they detect all types of chemical agents?

Do I need special training to use them?
No, they are designed for easy use with included instructions.
Can they be used in extreme temperatures?
Yes, they function in -20°C to 40°C (-4°F to 104°F), but antifreeze liquid is needed for subfreezing temperatures.
How should I dispose of a used detection strip?
Dispose of it as hazardous waste if it indicates contamination. If no reaction occurs, discard it as regular waste.
How long do the strips remain effective in storage?
They have a long shelf life when stored properly but should not be exposed to extreme heat for extended periods.
Can they be used for civilian applications?

What should I do if a strip reacts within 2–3 minutes?
Evacuate immediately and follow decontamination protocols before removing PPE.
Can these strips be used after decontaminating PPE?

What happens if the strip reacts after 15–30 minutes in food or water?

Where can I buy replacement detection strips?
