Defentect Adds Chemical Detection To its SCALABLE DM3™ Threat Awareness System

NORWAK, Conn. –– Defentect (OTC Bulletin Board: SLNH) continues to expand the abilities of its full-spectrum of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive (CBRNE) management, monitoring and messaging system, DM3™, with the addition of the CT2020ComboPRO photoionization detector

manufactured by Photovac, Inc.

The CT2020ComboPRO is a fully portable, handheld photoionization detector (PID) that measures volatile organic chemicals in air, including solvents such as toluene, gasoline and jet fuel. The detector is capable of measuring acetone, identified by authorities as a major component in manufacturing what would have been a devastating improvised explosive device (IED) in the recently uncovered terrorist conspiracy in New York implicating Najibullah Zazi.

According to Lon C. Loken, Vice President, Sales and Marketing, Photovac, “This sensor provides portability, ease of use, durability, accuracy; it’s proven invaluable to public safety personnel and first responders. Combined with Defentect’s broad DM3 detection capabilities platform, we have the ability to get this technology into markets where ongoing detection is necessary, such as self-storage facilities, which were the focus of a massive search as officials attempted to find stored chemicals that were the basis for the planned New York terror attacks using chemical IEDs. Storage facilities also have to contend with illegal storage and ‘dumping’ or abandonment of any number of chemicals, ranging from those used to manufacture methamphetamine, to the chemicals used in print shops (MEK – methyl ethyl ketone) to dry cleaning solvents.”

Frank O’Connor, president, Defentect, noted “DM3’s ability to add Defentect and third party threat sensors, such as the CT2020ComboPRO, to existing security systems makes Defentect’s solution an economical, efficient line of defense for many industries plagued by the threat of terrorism and other illegal activities, while mitigating physical hazard, potentially catastrophic financial risk and legal exposure.

“Defentect’s growing detection capabilities, encompassing radiation and chemical detection, offer strong solutions for a variety of industries such as the nation’s 52,000 plus self storage facilities, over 6,000 hospitals, and untold hundreds of thousands of vulnerable strategic points, such as bridges, tunnels, ports and shipping facilities.”
