WAS 900 Civil Defence Vehicle
CBRN Exploration Vehicle Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 5,38 T
CBRN exploration vehicles are a key element in modern crisis management. In the event of a CBRN incident, they enable rapid, precise reconnaissance of endangered or contaminated areas so that adequate protective measures can be taken immediately to protect the population. The WAS 900 combines mobile measurement and detection capabilities with clear operational logic: while driving, integrated systems reliably record relevant parameters and provide a reliable picture of the situation in the shortest possible time. The well-thoughtout overall design combines all equipment features into a coherent, mission-oriented vehicle. The ergonomically designed working compartment supports efficient processes even under extreme conditions. This makes the WAS 900 an effective tool for emergency services – for quick decisions, high measurement quality and maximum safety.
