c. The unit is about 13 inches in height and four inches in diameter. It weighs approximately
three pounds when empty and six pounds when filled with 1-1/3 quarts of DS2. A bracket is provided
for mounting the unit on vehicles.
d. The M11 can decontaminate 13.5 square feet per container of DS2. The range of dispersal
varies from six to eight feet at maximum pressure, fully pressurized at start of spraying, to three to five
feet, at end of spraying.
WARNING
DO NOT use the M11 if the container is damaged.
Wear protective mask and gloves when using the M11 to decontaminate.
DO NOT use the M11 as a fire extinguisher because DS2 is a combustible liquid.
Never initially pressurize the container with more than one nitrogen-filled cylinder.
The nitrogen cylinder contains nitrogen under high pressure. Care must be
exercised during installation to prevent premature puncturing of the cylinder.
Premature puncturing will cause the expulsion of the cylinder at a dangerous
velocity.
