Integrated into the TAC•PAK™,
the ChemWatch Chemical Database is the most widely used independently
researched HAZMAT emergency information tool in the world and it
is now available on the TAC•PAK™ via local CD-ROM or
wireless communication from any remote location. ChemWatch contains
emergency information on mass casualty chemicals and explosives,
all CDC infectious substances and other biologicals, hospital drugs,
pharmaceuticals, pesticides, common cleaners and fuels and other
trade products.
For the first time, Federal, State and Local First
Responders charged with protecting the public from terrorism, accidents
and injury have immediate access to detailed emergency information
and MSDSs on dangerous chemicals, infectious substances, drugs,
mass casualty and explosive materials. In addition to 40,000 pure
substances, ChemWatch also contains more than 75,000 common mixtures
from jet fuel to roach killers to cleaning agents.
Every ChemWatch MSDS offers details not generally
provided by manufacturers. ChemWatch reports are rich in graphics
and color to represent risks, hazard levels, PPE and cautionary
symbols such as those used by WHMIS and NFPA.
For the First Responder, ChemWatch information is
very specific on topics such as first response, physical properties,
personal protective equipment, advice to a doctor, odor safety and
ERG isolation distances, toxicology and ecotox, waste, regulatory
requirements and more.

Multiple Reports for Each Chemical
In addition to a detailed MSDS, ChemWatch also provides for
every substance one page summaries, emergency response summaries,
fire fighting reports and regulatory summaries.
Proprietary ChInA (Chemical Incident
Advisory) Report
Provides a checklist of responses, eliminating the need to review
several documents (such as the MSDS and Label).
Enivronmental Fate
Determines fate of materials, in the environment, following spill
or fugitive emission.
Internet / Intranet Access
Available from any location worldwide via TAC•PAK™ wireless
communication
