Almost all PES fit ppl must go in....even includes technicians etcOriginally posted by Luc85:I recently went to Seletar Camp for an experience of tears gas in a chamber in MOPP4 suit. Stinged my eyes like hell, choking, dry throat... but overall, it was an unforgetable experience..

Mopp 1 is basic, without the top
Mopp 2 is with top
Mopp 3 is with inner gloves, boots, protective gloves

ya lor...singapore govt is not trying to exterminate u all by the term gas chamber...Originally posted by juay323:Guys, to set the record straight, the right term to use is 'Smoke Trainer'. And not gas chamber! It uses a mild form of riot control agent called CS gas (O-Chlorobenzylidene malononitrile). It is completely safe for for usage under ideal training circumstances provided the dosage used is in accordance to exisiting training directives and TSR
Gas Chamber on the other hand is a term that is frequently used to describe the killing faciliites that the Nazis used to great effect in the WW2. The gas that was used was Zyklon B, a form of hydrogen cynaide (blood agents as it is commonly known; a class of CW agents)
Hope this sets the record straight and people will start using the right terminology to describe the right training facilities that we use for training.
The misuse of the this 'gas chamber' phrase has created quite a urban legend on its own, and has led trainees to fear for the worst for such training, when in fact this training is even safer than taking a IPPT/life run!! It's record speaks for itself.
So guys, it is SMOKE TRAINER.
