| Tested For Chemical Agents |
| GB, GD, L, GA, Did not detect VX (but may detect if sample is pulled through a silver fluoride conversion pad) |
| Tested For ITF-25 TIC/TIMs |
| H2S, SO2, Cl2, HCN, NH3, arsine, CS2, ethylene oxide |
| Tested For Explosives |
| Detects LEL of VOC gases |
| Other Chemical Targets |
| All volatile VOCs Does not detect phosgene |
| Radiological Targets |
