Toxic Vapor Suppression System Manual
The Toxic Vapor Suppression System is developed to rapidly suppress and neutralize hazardous vapors following chemical or mixed CBRNE incidents. It enables immediate response in emergency scenarios by dispersing a dry powder decontamination agent within seconds, reducing exposure risks and limiting the spread of toxic substances.
Deployment and Use Scenarios
The system is suitable for use in military operations, emergency response units, critical infrastructure protection, industrial facilities, and confined or open environments where toxic vapor release may occur. Its portable structure allows deployment in remote locations and supports multi-point decontamination operations.
System Configuration and Structure
The system utilizes handheld aerosol pods containing Timilon Fast Act Decontamination agent. The pods are maintenance-free and do not require electric motors, compressed gas cylinders, or pressure-release systems. Each pod is capable of deploying approximately 4.5–5 kg of decontamination agent in under two seconds.
The pods are lightweight and compact, enabling easy handling and rapid deployment by a single operator. The decontamination agent can be projected up to approximately 15 meters, allowing effective coverage of hazardous areas from a safe distance.
Two-Stage Operational Mechanism
The Toxic Vapor Suppression System features a two-stage operational design. In the first stage, the pod can be configured with a dry powder fire extinguishing agent to suppress active fires. In the second stage, the Timilon Fast Act Decontamination agent is deployed to neutralize residual toxic vapors and hazardous fumes. This dual-stage approach provides integrated fire suppression and vapor decontamination capability within a single system.
Activation and Dispersion Mechanism
The pods can be activated either manually or through an electric trigger. Activation is achieved by a battery-operated pyrotechnic mechanism that generates an aerosol, creating the required internal pressure to disperse the decontamination powder. This design eliminates dependency on external pressure sources and enhances system reliability, portability, and ease of use.
Functional Role
The Toxic Vapor Suppression System provides rapid area decontamination by dispersing a fast-acting dry powder agent that suppresses and neutralizes toxic vapors. Through its portable design, two-stage operation, and self-contained activation mechanism, the system supports immediate hazard mitigation, operator safety, and effective response in chemical and CBRNE threat environments.
