EN5000 GC-IMS
EN5000’s GC/IMS dual detection identifies specific explosives or narcotics traces. Detects military grade explosives, Semtex, C4, RDX and TNT, and most homemade explosives such as TATP. Available option detects cocaine, opiates, cannabis, and amphetamine-type stimulants. The E5000 analyzes swabs for explosives compounds only, while the EN5000 analyzes swabs in either explosives only or narcotics only detection modes.
