SafeSite Multi-Threat Detection System
SafeSite Multi-Threat Detection System

The SAFESITE Multi-Threat Detection System simultaneously monitors and wirelessly communicates six potential threats: CWAs, VOCs, TICs, gamma radiation, combustible gas and oxygen deficiency.
The SAFESITE System combines state-of-the-art detection technology with advanced wireless communication capabilities to provide superior preventative and counter-measure solutions for:

  • Homeland Security
  • Emergency Response
  • Public Events
  • Building Protection
  • Mass Transportation Centers
  • Perimeter Monitoring
  • Hazardous Response
  • Port Surveillance
  • Confined Space Monitoring
SAFESITE System components consist of the SAFEMTXTM Multi-Threat Detector, the SAFECOM™ Command Center and the SAFECONNECT™ Belt-Bridge with Sirius wireless interface. The system can be installed permanently (wired or wireless) for continual monitoring or deployed as a portable system.
The SAFEMTX Multi-Threat Detector utilizes mUlti-sensing technologies to detect up to six potential threats; helping first responders, law enforcement and government agents reduce the risk of exposure and facilitate consequence management.
The SAFECOM™ Command Center receives mission-critical information from the SAFEMTX™ Detectors and permits this crucial and wide-ranging data to be converted quickly into practical information for rapid decision­making through an uncomplicated graphical user interface. The SAFECOM Command Center can manage up to four systems with 16 SAFEMTX Detectors per system, integrating SAFEMTX data, including:
  • Gas readings
  • Relative CWA threat level
  • Radiation dose rate
  • Alarm status
  • GPS location
  • Battery run time
  • RF signal strength
  • Fault conditions
  • SAFEMTX min, max, and average values

Through the SAFECOM Command Center, alarms are identified with both visual and audible alarms. Alarms can then be acknowledged and silenced, detectors can be enabled and disabled, event logs and event log history can be viewed, plus units can be customized to suit the specific deployment scenario.
Wireless Technology:
The SAFESITE® System provides up to two miles of wireless communication between any SAFEMTX Detector, SAFECONNECT Belt-Bridge and SAFECOM Command Center. SAFECONFIG™ Software works with the SAFECOM Command Center or SAFECONNECT Belt-Bridge, enabling configuration of any SAFEMTX Detector as a repeater. This added capability maximizes deployment range and ensures maximum signal strength and reliable deployment without the need to move units.
SAFEPAC™ Perimeter Area Command Kit:
SAFESITE® SAFE PAC Perimeter Area Command Kit provides a basic kit for quick deployment and monitoring of an event or a location. The kit in­cludes two Pelican cases with an internal battery charger, 4 SAFEMTX™ Multi-Threat Detectors, 1 SAFECOM™ Command Center, all necessary PC interface software, and 4 extra batteries. A laptop PC is also available as an option, or an existing PC can be used.

BIOSENSOR 2200R Biological Agent Detector
BIOSENSOR 2200R Biological Agent Detector  BIOSENSOR 2200R in use

BIOSENSOR™ 2200R Biological Agent Detector
The new BIOSENSOR 2200R Biological Agent Detector from MSA is a handheld, portable, on-site instrument for rapid detection, analysis, and identification of biological agents. Unique bioassay technology offers excellent sensitivity and low false positives while offering ease of use during white powder response calls. This highly accurate detection method provides rapid measurement of biohazards such as anthrax, ricin, botulism, SEB, and plague.
Exclusive five minute time-to-answer allows first responders to make informed critical decisions more rapidly than any other biological agent detector. The BIOSENSOR 2200R employs dynamic surface generation, a patent pending type of immunoassay detection technology. This technology offers significant advantages over other field-based assay methods by combining the benefits of both the free solution and lateral flow types. The result is more rapid analysis, a user-friendly format, and detector stability within a wide range of climates.
Both wet and dry samples may be tested and results are displayed with a simple red (target presentl or green (no target presentl indication. As tests are nondestructive, samples may
be retained as evidence. Single-test, disposable cartridges with on-board reagents have a 12-month shelf life. This instrument is permanently housed in a sturdy, lightweight Pelican case.
