Description: Defense Technology Flameless Tri-Chamber CS, Model 1032 Quantity: 10; ideal inventory - 10 Lifespan: 5 years
Capabilities: Capable of being used for crowd control and barricaded subjects Manufacturer’s Description: The Tri-Chamber Flameless Grenade is designed for indoor use. This grenade’s pyrotechnic contents are burned within an internal can that is one of three in this design.

The internal combustion allows the chemical-laden smoke to be released through three (3) ports on the outer canister side while safely containing any of the fire-producing properties within the two internal canisters. The fuse is shrouded to further protect surrounding materials from the possibility of fire. The Tri-Chamber Flameless Grenade can be used in crowd control as well as tactical deployment situations by Law Enforcement and Corrections but was designed with the barricade situation in mind. Its applications in tactical situations are primarily to detect and/or dislodge barricaded subjects. The purpose of the Tri-Chamber Flameless Grenade is to minimize the risks to all parties through pain compliance, temporary discomfort, and/or incapacitation of potentially violent or dangerous subjects. The Tri-Chamber Flameless Grenade provides the option of delivering a pyrotechnic chemical device indoors, maximizing the chemicals’ effectiveness via heat and vaporization, while minimizing or negating the chance of fire to the structure. The actual smoke and chemical content is minimal enough that oxygen displacement concerns and LCT is rarely reached. It is a viable option when chemical-laden powders or liquids are ineffective or inappropriate for the situation. As with all pyrotechnic carriers, contamination will be greater than that experienced with powders or liquids

Equipment Type: Tear Gas; CA Gov’t Code §7070(c)(14)
Description: Defense Technology Ferret 40mm CS Powder, Model # 2292 Quantity: 0; ideal inventory -25 Lifespan: 5 years
Capabilities: Designed to disperse non-flammable chemical agent creating temporary discomfort through pain compliance; used at a distance and launched from 40mm device Manufacturer’s Description: The Ferret® 40mm Round is a frangible projectile filled with chemical agent. It is designed to deliver chemical agents in barricade situations from a 40mm launcher. Spin stabilization from barrel rifling affords maximum stand-off distance and accuracy for safety. The Ferret® 40mm Round is non-burning and suitable for indoor use. Used primarily by tactical teams, it is designed to penetrate barriers, such as windows, hollow core doors, wallboard and thin plywood.

Upon impacting the barrier, the nose cone ruptures and instantaneously delivers a small chemical payload inside of a structure or vehicle. In a tactical deployment situation, the Ferret® 40mm is primarily used to dislodge barricaded subjects from very small, confined areas. Its purpose is to minimize the risks to all parties through pain compliance, temporary discomfort and/or incapacitation of potentially violent or dangerous subjects. The Ferret® 40mm Round is available with either liquid or powder carriers for the agent. Once delivered, powder carriers tend to keep the agent airborne longer than liquid carriers and may have more effect. Liquid carriers contain red dye to aid in shot placement. Shot placement and trajectory considerations should be based on hardness of the barrier.

However, accuracy is dependent on the operator and the condition of the launcher. Velocity and barricade penetration results will vary between launchers, temperature conditioning and impact angle

Equipment Type: Projectile Munition; CA Gov’t Code §7070(c)(14) Description: Defense Technology 6325 40mm Smokeless Exact Impact Sponge Quantity: 145; ideal inventory - 450 Lifespan: 5 years
Capabilities: launched from a 40mm launcher to gain compliance as less lethal control device Manufacturer’s Description: The 40mm eXact iMpact™ Sponge Round has evolved from the design of the 40mm XM1006 projectile, developed by the US Army Research Laboratory. This lightweight, high- speed projectile incorporates a plastic body and a foam (sponge) nose which is spin stabilized via the incorporated rifling collar and the 40mm launcher’s rifled barrel. The round utilizes smokeless powder as the propellant and has velocities that are extremely consistent. The 40mm eXact iMpact™ Sponge Round is a “point-of-aim, point-of-impact” direct fire round that is most commonly used by tactical teams in situations where maximum deliverable energy is desired for the incapacitation of an aggressive, non-compliant subject. In many municipalities, these are being selected for both tactical call outs and as an available option for patrol. The 40mm eXact iMpact™ Sponge Round is intended for direct fire deployment. The operator should be adequately trained in the use of Less Lethal Impact Munitions and have a thorough understanding of the round and considerations for selecting shot placement such as level of threat, target distance, size and clothing. The 40mm eXact iMpact™ Sponge Round will prove most successful for incapacitation when used within its optimal energy range of approximately 5 – 40 meters, although it may used in situations from 1.5 – 50 meters. The optimal zone offers the necessary energy and accuracy to target the large muscle groups of the buttocks, thigh, and even the knees of the subject. These areas provide sufficient pain stimulus, while greatly reducing serious or life-threateninginjuries. The 40mm eXact iMpact™ Sponge Round can also be deployed in crowd control situations to protect the riot line, cover or enhance chemical munitions, or targeting specific agitators and organizers of the crowd. When used in this fashion, it is primarily both a psychological deterrent and physiological distraction serving as a pain compliance device to either get the crowd or subject moving or keeping them at a designated distance Purpose/Authorized Uses: Used to gain compliance and break windows on vehicle and structures Fiscal Impacts: $19.16 per round;/ $8622.00 to maintain ideal inventory Legal/Procedural Rules Governing Use: All applicable State, Federal and Local laws governing police use of force; Department Policy – Use of Force; Crisis Response Unit; Control Devices and Techniques Training Required: Agency authorized orientation course; annual refresher Compliance Mechanisms: Department Policy – Control Devices and Techniques
