Responder and community safety are critical when analyzing potentially hazardous materials. Military and civilian first responders need to quickly identify unknown solid and liquid chemicals down range including explosives, toxic industrial chemicals, chemical weapons, narcotics, precursors, white powders and more. The Thermo Scientific™ FirstDefender™ RMX Handheld Chemical Identification Analyzer can be used as a handheld instrument or integrated onto a tactical robot, providing more flexibility and increased safety in incident response situations that call for rapid, accurate chemical identification.

Identify a broad range of unknown chemicals and explosives in the field quickly, safely, and confidently using FTIR and Raman spectroscopy in a single instrument. The Thermo Scientific™ Gemini™ Analyzer is the first to integrate these complementary and confirmatory chemical identification techniques in a rugged, lightweight, handheld solution - providing complementary and confirmatory testing in a single, field-portable device.

Better, faster decision making:

Lightweight and compact, ideal for chemical battalions, explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) technicians and other first responders burdened with heavy equipment.

Virtual mixture analysis and interactive problem solving on scene withHazMasterG3.

Increased confidence in results:

Identifies unknown solids and liquids, from explosives and chemical warfare agents to industrial chemicals and precursors using a comprehensive onboard library. 

Builds on the field-proven performance of Thermo Scientific™ FirstDefender™ and Thermo Scientific™ TruDefender™ Analyzers.

When faced with an unknown chemical threat, every second counts. Quickly identify explosives or hazardous materials with Thermo Scientific™ TruDefender™ handheld analyzers. TruDefender FTX and FTXi instruments harness the power of FTIR spectroscopy to provide fast, actionable data to mitigate potential threats and protect hazmat teams and the community. TruDefender analyzers have a self-contained anvil sampling head for easy sampling of solid and liquid chemicals in the field. The TruDefender FTXi model features embedded mobile phone technology to link directly to incident command or reachback support.

With the TruNarc Handheld Narcotics Analyzer, the accuracy and reliability of a narcotics and drug test lab are available anywhere you go. With this handheld drug detector, narcotics, stimulants, depressants, hallucinogens and analgesics are easily identified using lab-proven Raman spectroscopy.

Single Test, Multiple Narcotics: Identifies more than 300 of the highest priority illicit and abused narcotics in a single drug test, saving time and money.

Easy to Use: A single drug test for multiple controlled substances provides clear, definitive results for presumptive identification with no user interpretation.
