EOD Equipment & Security Search Equipment
EOD – Explosives Ordnance Disposal Equipment
Field Forensics, representing NIC Instruments Ltd. in North America, offers a range of Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) equipment for searching and dealing with unexploded ordnance (OXO).
No unexploded ordnance can be dealt with until first located. NIC manufacture an array of search equipment designed to help search teams quickly locate suspect devices. These range from the large under vehicle mirror and telescopic search arms to the full ‘Hawk’ search kit, which offers a complete search solution, mounted in a backpack. NIC designs search equipment for easy use by security personnel, but attention is also given to search teams who may be in full bomb suits, where movement is extremely limited.
Once a suspect device has been identified NIC’s role continues in offering solutions to deal with it. Hook and line offers not only an access capability, but also solutions if the device must be moved. The NIC Hook and Line system has a range of instruments designed to open or move doors, windows and a range of other obstacles in the path of the device. The Hook and Line system may then also be utilized to move the device if required. Once again, NIC’s emphasis on design ensures that personnel in full bomb suits may use instruments even when movement is limited.
In many areas, personnel need to have a full EOD capability, but do not have the resources to transport it, e.g. in post combat theatres. The NIC lightweight modular EOD response pack offers a complete EOD capability in a back pack system. This system offers an excellent solution to IEDD tasks as well, and can be tailored to suit customer’s specific tasks. The pack offers reconnaissance instruments, access, search and location, identification and diagnosis and render safe/neutralization procedures. NIC is the only company to manufacture such a complete solution for the management of unexploded ordnance.

Demining
Demining has become one of the most important tasks in recent years for groups involved in EOD. Awareness of anti-personnel mines, unexploded ordnance and unmarked minefields left after years of unrest in many countries, has greatly increased. Many humanitarian groups have taken on the task to clear these areas, prior to rehabilitation.
NIC manufactures a range of products that are used to assist in demining. These products range from hook and line systems to the NIC lightweight modular EOD backpack, which offers a full EOD capability in a lightweight backpack system. For humanitarian and non-governmental groups (NGO), the NIC lightweight modular backpack is available in bright orange. This clearly distinguishes operators as being non-military, essential for many NGO.
