For those who work tirelessly to protect the public, everyday presents a new challenge. What will you be faced with today? Strange odours? Suspicious packages? Drugs?

You need to have an instrument by your side that can detect the widest range of substances.

The SABRE 4000 is the only portable trace detector that can detect threats from explosives, chemical warfare agents, toxic industrial chemicals or narcotics, and can do so in approximately 20 seconds. With a start time of 15 minutes and weighing approximately 7 lbs. including the 4-hour battery, the SABRE 4000 is a small, powerful ally in the war on terror and drug trafficking.

With the added TIC detection capability, new features such as the 3.5” color TFT display and standard 4-hour battery, the SABRE 4000 is still the smallest, lightest hand-held tri-mode trace detector available. It is also the only one that can detect and identify all the threats you face.

Trace Detection
A detection using the SABRE 4000 means that traces of a target substance have been found on the item sampled. This in turn means that the item or its handler has been in contact with the identified substance and appropriate actions need to be taken.

Sample Collection
Proper sample collection is key to the success of any trace detector. The versatile SABRE 4000 is capable of analysing either trace particle or vapor samples, allowing the operator to apply the ideal sampling technique for the substance suspected.

For example, most explosive and narcotic substances do not have a strong vapor presence and in the real world are very difficult to detect by vapor. Therefore, the most reliable collection and analysis method for those substances is particle collection. The nature of CW Agents and Toxic Industrial Chemicals make vapor sampling more appropriate for these substances.

The SABRE 4000’s ability to analyze either trace particle or vapor samples lets the operator decide which sample collection method will yield the most accurate analysis results.
