System of Radiation, Chemical, Biological Reconnaissance

SRCBR-T

The system is designed for conducting radiation, chemical, and biological reconnaissance. It is installed on CBR reconnaissance vehicles and consists of:

BUSK-T control, alarm, and monitoring unit, which is placed inside the vehicle
AP4C-VB chemical and biological reconnaissance device, which is mounted outside

Features

Capability to detect in the air all known chemical warfare agents (CWAs) of nerve-paralytic, blister, general toxic, and certain choking types, as well as highly toxic substances containing sulfur, arsenic, phosphorus, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, nitric acid vapors, etc.
Powered from the vehicle’s onboard network
Capability to detect biological agents:
- Bacteria – anthrax, plague, tularemia, brucellosis, typhus, cholera, glanders
- Viruses – smallpox, hemorrhagic fevers (Ebola, Marburg), arenaviruses (Lassa, Machupo), viral encephalitis
- Toxins – botulism, ricin toxin, staphylococcal enterotoxin
Operating principle based on flame spectrometry technology, which ensures reliable performance under any environmental influence and provides the following advantages:
- No limitations on the number of detectable molecular types
- No need for inlet filters or membranes, eliminating clogging risks
- Capability to detect mixed products, unrefined substances, precursors, derivatives, and unknown compounds
- Very short recovery time after confirmed detection
- Insensitivity to external factors (dust, high humidity, diesel exhaust gases, etc.)
- Lowest false alarm rate compared to other technologies

Thanks to flame spectrometry technology, the device is the only detector that meets NATO’s recommended requirements for sensitivity, detection time, and recovery time.

Additionally, we offer the CRHR-T system, which is similar in purpose but does not provide biological reconnaissance capability.
