Morphix 085140 Chemical Suicide Detection Kit No Tax

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.

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.

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.

Chemical suicides are the result of mixing common household chemicals resulting in a toxic gas, most notably hydrogen sulfide. Combined in a confined area, the victim quickly asphyxiates. Unfortunately, for many first responders, and despite warnings posted by the victims, over 80% of police and first responders have been injured when responding to chemical suicide situations.

Morphix Technologies, an innovator in the science of colorimetric detection devices for dangerous chemical gases, is on the forefront of preventing accidental exposure to first responders from these toxic chemicals. The Chameleon Chemical Suicide Detection Kit offers police, EMS and first responders a field-configurable, low-cost, easy-to-use, hands-free solution when encountering a chemical suicide. The most notable gas produced in chemical suicides is hydrogen sulfide. In low concentrations hydrogen sulfide produces the common “rotten egg” smell, but in higher concentrations the chemical first affects the sense of smell by paralyzing the olfactory nerves, thus the victim no longer smells anything and neither will first response teams. Death results from pulmonary edema and/or respiratory failure. Concentrations can be so high as to incite death in just one breath. Most victims have chosen an automobile as the location for the suicide act and by taping the surrounding gaps in the doors and vents and posting warning signs, think that toxic chemicals are well contained. But often times the chemicals vent outside the suicide area and without a reliable and easy-to-read chemical detection system, many first responders require medical attention and even long-term care after exposure. 

The use of Chameleon Detection Kits by police, fire and first responders on service calls and as a part of their training program can provide an extra measure of safety and perhaps even save lives. In addition to safety considerations, the use of the Chameleon can reduce liability, injury, time off and result in a reduction of costs by possibly preventing injuries. The Chameleon® is designed for an easy on/easy off fit on the wearer’s forearm and can be worn over most turn-out gear or level-A suits. The sensors change color when toxic gases are present and require no power source or calibration. Unlike current colorimetric detection systems, the Chameleon is designed to military standards for use in a wide variety of operating environments. It can be used in desert heat, arctic cold or tropical conditions and can even be immersed in water. The Chameleon detects gases and vapors in the air where other technologies only detect hazards in liquid or aerosol forms. Gaseous forms of toxic chemicals are the most likely danger to first responders, police and fire personnel. The Chameleon Chemical Suicide Detection Kit contains sensors for: high pH (base), hydrogen sulfide, low pH (acid), phosphine, and sulfur dioxide.
