M11 Decontaminating Apparatus.
a. The M11 (Figure 3-3) is a fire extinguisher-like device used to spray DS2. The apparatus is
portable and holds a 1-1/3 quart can of DS2. It is used to decontaminate vehicles or crew-served
weapons to the minimum extent necessary to make them safe for continued use.
b. The M11 is refillable and is charged by a nitrogen cylinder. DS2 is released under pressure
as a spray. DS2 is sprayed on surfaces of vehicles and equipment most likely to be touched by operators
and crew. At low temperatures, two nitrogen cylinders may be needed to charge the apparatus.
