The Overall Operation
This person organizes the HazMat operation and conducts the mission briefing.
Who is the HazMat Officer?
This Entry Team member handles clean supplies and documentation.
Who is the Clean Guy?
A pH below 7 indicates this.
What is acidic?
FTIR measures the absorption of this.
What is infrared light?
This can overwhelm the Raman signal and obscure the pattern.
What is Fluorescence?
This person completes the ICS 208 HM.
Who is Command
This Entry Team member handles tools after they contact the product.
Who is the Dirty Guy?
A dark reaction on KI paper suggests this hazard class.
What is an oxidizer?
FTIR is able to clearly identify colored substances because it is not interfered with by this.
What is fluorescence?
Due to this, a time delay should be used.
What is laser heating?
Before the Entry Team can go downrange, these two non-negotiables must be completed.
What are pre-entry medical monitoring and Decon established and ready?
This device monitors the wearer's radiation dose
What is dosimeter?
This needs to be added to Ki and F paper to activate the papers.
What is hydrochloric acid (HCL) ?
FTIR is good at seeing this type of bond.
What is polar bond?
This feature of the Raman allows users to analyze a substance that is inside transparent or translucent packaging.
What is through-container analysis?
During a HazMat Alert transport, this is sent to the receiving hospital.
What is one unit as an EMS Assist?
These 4 pictures are taken during evidence collection.
What is:
Midrange before collection
Close-up before collection
Close-up after collection
Midrange after collection
Two of these three methods should be used to identify a hazard.
What is wet chemistry, Raman, and FTIR?
An ATR-FTIR repeatedly gives poor data on a clean sample and clean instrument. This physical problem should be checked next.
What is poor contact with the crystal?
The Raman laser can cause this dangerous effect in a sensitive material.
What is heating or ignition?
This position can stop the HazMat operation when the risk outweighs the benefit.
Who is the HazMat Safety Officer?
This agency decides whether HazMat collects criminal evidence.
What is law enforcement?
Suspicious crystals around a container cap should trigger this action.
What is stop and request EOD?
This interferes with absorbing infrared light.
What is water?
The Serstech and Gemini Raman use this wavelength and the Rigakus use this wavelength.
What is 785 nm and 1064 nm?
