MSA Safesite SafeCWA Chemical Warfare Agent Detector
Part of the MSA SafeSite™ Hazardous Gas Detection System, simultaneously detects and categorizes Chemical Warfare Agents ( CWAs ) in the event of a terrorist attack. The ability of the SafeCWA unit to detect chemical threats effectively helps first responders, law enforcement and government agents warn of and respond to chemical weapons of mass destruction.

MSA’s SafeCWA Detector uses Surface Acoustic Wavelength (SAW) technology, providing selective analysis to avoid misleading warnings and false alarms through a thermally modulated sample collection method. SAW sensors convert chemical or physical input into an acoustical variation. SAW chemical sensors take advantage of their inherent surface sensitivity to function and are the preferred signal processing components for varied applications. If a CWA is present, a qualitative signal will be discreetly displayed on the unit. In addition, this signal will also be conveyed via wireless RF link to the remote SafeCOM™ Command Center, part of the MSA SafeSite Hazardous Gas Detection System.
