telemax ExplosiveOrdnance (EOD)

RobotThe telemax robot is the most versatile EOD /Hazmat robot available on the market today. Itpacks up small enough to fit in the back of asmall SUV but is able to reach over 2,4m tall.

A four-track running gear has been used for thefirst time in a vehicle of this size, which offerssuperior mobility compared to other forms ofrunning gear. This means that it can handlegradients of 45° or 100% without difficulty. It canovercome obstacles of up to half a meter inheight without problems and also trenches of60 cm in width.

The basic principle of 'less is more' applies withspecial forces if the situation involves workingin confined spaces; in all cases where the bigEOD robot cannot be used its little brotherprovides that vital distance between the bombdisposal engineer and the explosive device (IED,EOD, Bomb) that can mean the differencebetween life and death: in aircraft, in subways,in buses or other means of public transport.

The telemax has a unique set of features makingit highly mobile and suitable for operating inconfined spaces; the four individuallyarticulating tracks are controlled separately andcan be moved individually in pairs or alltogether as desired. Additionally, an intelligentcontroller sets running gear configurations tocope with the relevant situation at the press ofa button.

These features make it easier for the operatorto control the vehicle, especially in trickysituations such as narrow stairways and highsteps. Inclination sensors ensure that the robotalways maintains its balance. If a travelling speedof 4 km/h is not enough, then the high speedversion offers up to 10 km/h.

The operating concept of the telemax is almostrevolutionary by comparison to other robots onthe market. It is the only EOD robot in the worldthat has a so-called TCP controller. TCP standshere for Tool Center Point, the middle point ofthe tool, or more simply, the gripper ordisruptor. This kind of manipulator controlmakes the telemax the best in class robot inmanipulation.

telemax is the only robot in this class that hastwo tool magazines incorporated into thechassis. This means two additional tools / firingsystems can be used on an operation withoutneeding to go back to the starting point. Themanipulator automatically takes out theadditional tools at the simple press of a button.

NBCmax CBRNEService Robot

The NBCmax service robot is a universal mobilesensor platform that can be equipped with abroad palette of sensors to detect andinvestigate chemical, biological, explosive ortoxic substances (CBRNE).

Not only bomb disposal engineers are exposedto a wide and varied range of hazards today.Rescue forces and first responders such as thefire service, technical rescue specialists orinternational aid forces increasingly findthemselves in situations that involve anextremely high level of personal danger. Thisincludes operations that involve hazardousmaterials, toxic substances or even biologicallyharmful materials such as viruses or bacteria.Once such substances have been released-whether through accidents or intentionally-therescue forces are exposed to maximum dangerif working manually.

The NBCmax has been developed to allow theresponse forces to inspect, and if applicabledeal with hazards from a safe distance. The datacollected, ranging from gas concentration and

gamma radiation through to evidence ofexplosives, is transmitted back to the controlpanel of the robot to be processed by theoperator.

tEODor ExplosiveOrdnance (EOD)

RobottEODor is an Explosive Ordnance Disposal(EOD) and observation robot that sets thestandard worldwide.

Distance means safety; robust, reliable andflexible in use, the innovative bomb disposalsystem provides a maximum degree of safetyand protection. The basic model is designed asa twin-track vehicle with extremely goodmanoeuvrability and good properties on openground; the running gear, equipped with sprungrollers, is characterised by the ability to climb atangles of up to 45°. The individual links of therobust steel track can be easily replaced if theybecome worn or damaged.

The high-torque drive units work withcontinuous four-quadrant control, bothbackwards and forwards. Both the vehicle andthe manipulator can be operated with extremedelicacy. When the vehicle stops on slopes orgradients the safety brakes operateautomatically to hold the vehicle in place.

EOD - IEDD TEL600Service Vehicles

The TEL600 series is a family of vehicles whichdeal with the demanding tasks associated withthe location, identification and removal ofexplosive and incendiary devices, especially inthe event that there is suspicion of a dirty bomb.The range encompasses a compact RapidResponse (S) vehicle based on a fast four wheeldrive (4X4) vehicle to take immediate action atthe crime scene; medium-sized (M) search anddetection vehicles for location andidentification operations; and fully equipped IED/ NBC response systems (L) weighing up to 8tons.

The XL and XXL systems, based on medium-sized and heavy trucks, represent the higheststandard in Bomb Disposal vehicles, providingsecurity personnel with the optimum amountof equipment to cover every eventuality. Kitranges from a simple hook and line set throughto various EOD robots and unmannedreconnaissance platforms, all the way up to aNBC robot with a fully automatic system to takesamples and investigate hazardous biologicalmaterials. Systems are made-to-order based onindividual customer specifications.

Ansell, a global leader in protection solutions,announces the launch of the TRELLCHEMHands-Free Visor Light System, US patentpending. The system offers Hazmatresponders in encapsulating Trellchem suits abuilt-in hands-free LED lighting solution witha panoramic view with no risk of blindingreflections.

Access to light and good visibility plays a vitalrole in creating a safe environment for mostkinds of work. Trellchem encapsulatinggastight suits are used by a variety ofresponders in emergency situations wherethe environment can be both very dangerousand most often very demanding in terms ofaccess to daylight or any other light sources.Typical situations include visibility limited bysmoke from the off-gassing of chemicals tothe dark, non-lit space of an industrial buildingwhere lights are out. The responder must alsonormally carry a wide range of tools to beable to complete the mission. A solution thatoffers hands-free operation of a light sourcetherefor contributes both to safety andefficiency for the entire response team.

Hands-Free Visor Light System“The Trellchem Hands-Free Visor LightSystem adds true value for any responderworking in demanding and hazardousenvironments” says Thomas Draskovics,President and General Manager AnsellSpecialty Markets. “By adding an integratedlighting solution into our suits we areconvinced that we will help create a saferenvironment for responders working in thesesometimes life-threatening operations”.

The Trellchem Hands-Free Visor Light Systemis a “short throw” illumination system basedon a LED panel mounted along the top insideof the visor. It is connected to a standard 9Vbattery giving the user an expected durationof more than one hour. The wide beam of theLED panel creates a panoramic view in poorlyilluminated environments. It helps theresponder with better orientation as well assafer and more rapid performance since itfrees up both hands. The design of the systemeliminates any risk of reflection back into theeyes of the user and mounts easily in bothnew and existing suits without the need of

any special tools. The LED panel is poweredby standard batteries to eliminate the needof any recharging management.

The system fulfils EMC (Electro MagneticCompatibility) requirements and does notinterfere with any radio communicationdevices. Further, it does not influence orinterfere with any regulatory certificationregarding the Trellchem suit. Fordecontamination and cleaning purposes,once the battery pack is dismounted, thesystem will remain unaffected inside the suitwhen being washed.
