When officers and agents bring in evidence, especially any drugs, or hazardous materials, there’s always a chance for harmful fumes. And when all that evidence sits together in a room or storage area, the fumes can build up, multiplying the air quality hazards many times.
To solve this problem, most law enforcement evidence storage facilities in the U.S. are using a familiar portable fume extractor –the RSU series from Electrocorp. In fact, about 80% of law enforcement facilities in the U.S. use the RSU 12, 20, 24 or 48 to effectively capture chemical fumes, gases, and vapors. That’s a pretty high usage, so there must be a good reason—and indeed, there is.
Unlike many fume collection units, the RSU series portable fume extractors start with 23 pounds (can be up to 100 lbs) of highly activated Vocarb carbon, the strongest industrial strength activated carbon you can buy, which easily captures and removes tough chemicals like benzene, formaldehyde, trichloroethylene, smoke, and others. And, many units are the CCH model, which includes a medical-grade HEPA filter to trap particles, which are harmful and contribute to odors, and often contain bacteria and viruses, as well, since most evidence doesn’t come from the cleanest places.
Like welding and soldering, having an industrial vapor filtration system in any law enforcement setting where harmful fumes, vapors, gases, and particles are present is a very important safety measure. A proper portable or HVAC-based gas & vapor collection system not only helps insure the safety and health of the officers and other personnel, but also any inmates that might be exposed to pepper spray, smoke, or other harmful pollutants.
In many jails, the use of mace or pepper spray often causes evacuation of prisoners for a period of time due to the spray hanging in the air and floating to other cells, or going through the HVAC system and spreading pepper spray to other areas of the building. Many jail facilities also use the RSU series fume extractors to capture pepper spray, VOC’s, and chemical vapors from various products to prevent the need for evacuation of prisoners and further contamination of the building. A jail facility can sharply reduce the chances of escape and other problems with one quality portable VOC collector A very smart investment, indeed.
