This material has been used by the military as a simulant of a nonpersistent agent to evaluate chemical equipment. It is also used to activate detector kits and alarms. It has been used during field exercises to simulate the threat posed by toxic agent vapor and assist in training soldiers on the proper use of protective equipment. [Pg.446]

M256-Series Chemical Agent Detector Kit A kit used by military personnel to detect and identify field concentrations of nerve, blister or blood agent vapors. The kit consists of twelve samplers/detectors and a packet of M8 detector paper. It is used at the squad, crew or section level to detect and identify field concentrations of nerve, blister or blood agents vapors. It is usually used to determine when it is safe to unmask, to locate and identify chemical hazards, and to monitor decontamination effectiveness. [Pg.322]

The most widely available U.S. military detector for chemical agent vapors is the M256A1 Chemical Agent Detector Kit. These kits contain cards with vials of liquid chemical reagents attached that are combined and exposed to the air in a specific sequence. The kits must be manually manipulated, and the full sequence of tests takes 20 to 25 minutes. These kits are the most sensitive detector of nerve agent vapor and are not subject to the same type of interferents that can cause false alarms in some of the electronic detector systems. [Pg.138]

B. Unmasking Procedures with M256 or M256A1 Detector Kit. Test with detector kit. If the test is negative, have one or two soldiers move to a shady area if possible and unmask for 5 minutes. Have the soldiers remask. Observe them for 10 minutes for symptoms. If symptoms do not appear, it is safe to give the all clear signal and unmask. The senior leader present may ask higher headquarters for permission. Continue to observe the soldiers in case delayed symptoms develop. [Pg.18]

The inability to instantly detect nerve agents and sound an alarm to alert surrounding troops was the primary concern of the Chemical Corps during the 1950s. Many detector kits from World War II were updated to improve detection of nerve agents, but these only provided confirmation, without providing advance warning. [Pg.53]
