A chemical analyzer that is capable of providing at-scene chemical identification, CBRNe identification and detection, and narcotics identification from one device is essential to ensuring public safety. With Progeny™ ResQ™ unique 1064nm laser source and 4C™ technology, users can now expand their at-scene investigation to include analysis of coloured materials or substances found in packaging and overall threat identification. The 1064nm advantage minimizes sample induced interference issues known to generate lengthy estimated analysis times or worse, “No Match” results deemed unacceptable for at-scene chemical identification. Progeny™ ResQ™ handheld Raman enables users to detect, identify and respond to sophisticated threats with confidence, at the touch of a button.

Users can now expand response by:

• Monitoring scans for combined threat
• Receiving onscreen threat alert when indicated
• Obtaining specific threat name

Individual substances identified at-scene often only provide evidence as to what has occurred but fail to indicate specific criminal intent without further investigative efforts. New 4C™ technology in Progeny™ ResQ™ handheld Raman provides incident threat level warning for multiple hazards detected in combination for a user-defined period of time.

Progeny™ ResQ™ handheld Raman is no ordinary chemical analyzer. Start-up time is 40 seconds from power-on to analysis. Analysis results are provided in less than a minute. Results are clearly communicated as Threat/No Threat, meaning that there is no uncertainty unlike with some other portable Raman analyzers. On-screen hazmat tags and NFPA rating communicates the risk severity.

Progeny™ ResQ™ handheld Raman is purposefully designed to meet the needs of those who encounter stressful, unpredictable and harsh environments. Features include a smart-phone inspired user interface, with analysis initiation via the touchscreen display or large military spec’d large button navigation. The sleek design delivers truly one-handed operation. Easily decontaminated, MIL-STD 810G & IP-68 certified rugged.
