All Hazard Threat Detection

MX908® leverages high-pressure mass spectrometry™ (HPMS) to deliver dramatically enhanced sensitivity and broader threat category coverage. This second-generation tool increases mission support with unmatched flexibility and trace detection power for elite responders in chemical, explosive, drug and priority hazmat scenarios. MX908 lightens the overall technology burden by displacing other less selective technologies from the response toolkit.

Lightening The Load

With the enhanced proficiency of HPMS, users can lighten the technology load of tools required downrange. With sensitivity levels comparable to ion mobility mass spectrometry (IMS) and significantly enhanced selectivity, MX908 can detect trace quantities (low – mid ppb) of priority threats amongst the myriad of interferents that plague other less selective technologies.
