084005 ACID (LOW PH) GASES: Operating Instructions Low pH (Acid) Cassette (Part Number: 084005) Applications: The Chameleon is the only hands-free, power-free, chemical detector for gases and vapors in air, allowing First Responders, Firefighters, EMS, Police Officers and Military to detect the presence of hazardous chemicals. No liquid sample required. The Chameleon may even be immersed in salt water or fresh water without affecting its performance. Developed under funding by the United States Marine Corps, the Chameleon is ideal for users to screen unknown hazards in their environment. This cassette responds to strong acid gases such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid and nitric acid. It does not respond to weak acid gases such as hydrogen iodine, acetic acid and acrylic acid. Exposure can occur in many situations. Storage tank leaks in chemical plants and during transportation result in exposure to acid vapors. Hydrochloric acid can be released when PVC electric cable jacketing is burned. Fluorocarbon refrigerants are non-flammable and non-explosive, but exposure to flames or hot surfaces will cause these compounds to generate hydrochloric acid and hydrofluoric acid. Household chemicals, when exposed to high heat can also generate acid vapors. A growing source of exposure to acid vapors occurs in clandestine methamphetamine laboratories. Specifications: The chemical sensor in the low pH (acid) cassette shows an easy to see color change. Half of the sensor window will change color. Unexposed Exposed Description Concentration Reaction Time Hydrogen Chloride 25 ppm 3 min. Nitric Acid 12.5 ppm 4 min. Hydrogen Bromide 15 ppm 5 min

Chameleon® Chemical Detection 

Military, law enforcement, first responders and emergency personnel know that the most effective missions are the safest. And only known dangers can be proactively mitigated. Yet, some of the most dangerous threats – like toxic, airborne chemicals -are often unseen.

Thanks to the Chameleon’s simple color-change chemical detection system, it’s easy to know if chemical danger is present. One color indicates the absence of toxic gas. When two colors appear in the window, users know it’s time to take action. No chemical detector is easier to use.

Ensuring safe breathing conditions is paramount to the safety of all involved. You want a chemical detector that you can trust. The Chameleon chemical detection armband was designed for these threats.

Traditional chemical detection devices are difficult, expensive, and fragile

There are many handheld chemical detectors on the market, choosing the right one is critical. Traditional electronic chemical detectors require a great deal of training, a large budget and regular maintenance. These chemical detectors are designed for use by hazmat or CBRN specialists. The Chameleon chemical detection armband is much more convenient. Simple to use and low cost, Chameleon is a unique chemical detector that can be used by every warfighter, police officer and firefighter. Finally, there is a chemical detector that is made for use in the field.

More About Chameleon

In addition to being easy-to-use and low cost, the Chameleon chemical detector is built for the real world. It is designed for use in arctic, tropical and desert conditions. It can even be immersed in water. Other chemical detectors can't do that. That's why naval boarding teams use the Chameleon.

Morphix Technologies has prioritized its product development based on the advice of U.S. military and law enforcement agencies, so Chameleon chemical detection cassettes are available for many of the high-risk Toxic Industrial Chemicals (TICs) identified by the U.S. government.

Chemical detection has never been easier.
