The CW Sentry Chemical Warfare Agent Detector uses a surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor array with a thermally modulated sample collector to detect CWAs and avoid false positives. To expand the CW Sentry’s capabilities, an electrochemical sensor array is added to detect TICs. Analysis data can be reported via RS232, ethernet, fiber optic, or switch closures. This architecture facilitates networking of multiple instruments into large monitoring sensor nodes.

Product Information
The CW Sentry Chemical Warfare Agent Detector from MSA is a compact, wall-mounted instrument designed to detect the release of Chemical Warfare Agents (CWAs) and selected Toxic Industrial Chemicals (TICs). The CW Sentry is a fully automated detection system designed for fixed site installations such as office buildings, HVAC systems, subways and airports. The CW Sentry employs a sophisticated, highly selective detection system designed to operate in complex environmental conditions. The detector is field-supportable, inexpensive to operate and requires very little maintenance. Created specifically to function in real world environments, the CW Sentry has anticipated and met the requirements for effective 24/7 CW agent detection.
