Sampling solution Battery
Non rechargeable lithium battery; Two units are required to power the AP4C detector; The S4PE sampler needs one; Provides 24 hours of run time for the AP4C at room temperature.
All Proengin detectors use flame spectrometry and meet strict military standards. Just with all detector systems we have a list of consumables that are used in the operation and use of our detectors. The key consumables are as follows:
The hydrogen cylinder. The hydrogen cylinder contains specially designed metal beads inside which capture and hold the hydrogen and then release this hydrogen when needed by the detector. These hydrogen cylinders are designed to be refillable, are UN3479 certified, and provide approximately 12 hours of detector use between refills. These hydrogen cylinders are used in AP2C / AP4C handhelds and the AP4C-V and AP4C-VB detector systems.
Battery, which are used to provide operational power to the AP4C handhelds as well as the S4PE and S4PF liquid/solid sampling heaters. The AP4C requires the use of 2 batteries to operate while the S4PE requires 1. The batteries are designed to operate between -32 ° C and + 50 ° C. Please note that these batteries were specifically selected because they meet the required power draws for the detector and other battery types should not be used.
Rechargeable Battery-For customers desiring a rechargeable approach, an optional rechargeable battery system is available. The system includes a battery and a charger which is able to operate with both 120/240V AC power. Please note that a rechargeable battery is not recommended for customers who operate the detector in very cold temperatures.
Sampling Scrapers-The test scrapers and are used to collect and test liquid and solid materials of interest. The test scrapers come in a sealed package. There are ten scrapers included in each package and they are stored inside a green plastic box.
Replaceable Components
Non rechargeable lithium battery; Two units are required to power the AP4C detector; The S4PE sampler needs one; Provides 24 hours of run time for the AP4C at room temperature.
Located inside the hydrogen module of the AP4C-F, the coalescence filter stops water vapors and electrolyte droplets in the hydrogen flow after the condensor. This special filter is derivated from the standard model. It has been specially designed for continuous operation at very low temperature to prevent its clogging by frost
Maintenance This filter does not need any maintenance. It must be replaced every 20 000 hours.
Demineralized water for AP4C-F, AP4C-FB and MAB
The refillable demineralized water bottle is specifically designed to be connected to water intake of AP4C-F, AP4C-FB and MAB.
The bottle of water is to be connected to the detector to refill the electrolysis cell up to nominal level.
Electrolyte for AP4C-F, AP4C-FB and MAB
The electrolyte bottle is designed to be connected to water intake of AP4C-F, AP4C-FB and MAB.
The electrolyte is to be changed every 1 or 2 years (see each detector user manual), on set up.
Battery pack includes a battery holder and 2 SAFT LSH20. It is liquid cathode, lithium thionyl chloride (Li-SOCLS2) battery. The LSH20 battery can operate in extrem temperature conditions and preserves its electrical characteristics after serveral years of storage in servere conditions.
The S4PF sampling scraper, mounted on the S4PF, enables persistent chemical agents, like PBAs and Novichoks, sampling. The collected sample is vaporized to be analyzed by TIMs, AP2C or AP4C.
The S4PF sampling scrapers are supplied in a box of 10.
These scrapers are adapted to the S4PF solution with higher temperature hits; S4PE scrapers cannot be used on the S4PF sampling solution.
