DECON/pak

Task Force Tips DECON/pak self-contained agent proportioning and rinse application system was developed specifically for gross decontamination of firefighting personnel donned with gear and their equipment. Throughout 2017, TFT field-tested the DECON/pak at fire stations and training academies across the nation. The feedback received helped to refine the final version into an easy-to-deploy system to perform gross decon operations at the fire scene. The DECON/pak uses a simple, three-step process: add cleaning agent, connect to hoseline, and wash/scrub/rinse. The system includes a 2.5-gallon container for detergent, a 12-foot hose with fan spray nozzle, and a simple built-in eductor that allows water from the truck to be used in a mix or rinse application.
