Decon Showers - Mass Casualty Shower - 4 Line - 3 or 4 Stage

A high‑capacity, four‑line decon system designed for rapid mass‑casualty response involving chemical, biological, or radiological exposures. The DAT®4070S supports four parallel operational lanes and three or four sequential decon stages—undress → detergent shower → rinse → redress. It deploys in under three minutes and can process four non‑ambulatory patients or up to eight ambulatory personnel simultaneously.

Features

• Heavy Duty Air Berms: Constructed from extremely heavy‑duty 1100 Dtex polyester, quadruple‑overlapped and glued, matching the structural integrity of rescue‑boat hulls.
• Extremely Rapid Deployment: Inflates virtually unaided using compressed air or the included electric inflator/deflator, enabling setup in under three minutes.
• High‑Capacity Multi‑Line Decon: Handles four parallel decon lines simultaneously and can run 3‑stage or 4‑stage configurations.
• Handles Non‑Ambulatory & Ambulatory Victims: Processes four stretcher patients or up to eight ambulatory casualties at one time.
• Extremely Stable in Harsh Conditions: Engineered for use in 70+ mph (115 kph) winds when properly anchored.
• ANSI/ISEA 113 Compliant & NFPA 1851 Gross-Decon Suitable: Ensures compliance for fire service decontamination, including immediate post‑fire washdown.
• Meets WHO/FEMA/DHS/US Military Guidelines for mass‑casualty CBRN decontamination.

What Is It?

The DAT®4070S is a four‑line, multi‑station mass‑casualty decontamination system designed for handling large numbers of contaminated victims in structured stages. Each of the four lanes can be configured as:

1. Undress
2. Detergent Shower #1
3. Rinse Shower #2
4. Redress

Or adapted so each lane can support two simultaneous personnel in separate showers.

How Is It Used?

1. Inflate the structure using compressed air or the provided electric inflator/deflator (≈3 minutes).
2. Connect to the water supply via the two ¾" GHT threaded inlets.
3. Stage victims in the undress area, then move them through the detergent and rinse showers (24 total shower heads + spray guns).
4. Redress in the exit privacy zone before releasing to the cold zone.
5. Pump out wastewater (≈450 gallons capacity) when needed.

Who Uses It?

• Fire departments (gross decon, post‑structure fire NFPA 1851 compliance)
• HazMat teams
• EMS and first receivers
• Hospitals
• Military CBRN response units
• Emergency management and disaster teams

Maintenance Information

• Rinse and clean shower heads, divider curtains, hoses, and interior surfaces after use.
• Check air berms, valves, relief valve, and seams for wear or micro‑tears.
• Store in the provided heavy‑duty carry sleeve.
• Inspect and clean potable‑water‑approved hoses (Texin 985U or Texin 1209).

What Is It Used With?

The system can connect or expand with:

• Additional FSI decon shelters
• Water heaters (FSI Heat 200A)
• Detergent injectors (HEAT 201)
• Waste pumps
• LED lighting kits
• Conveyors & spine boards
• Multi‑manifold hose distribution

What Material Is It Made From?

• 1100 Dtex polyester with plastomer coating (air berms & canopy) – UV‑resistant, chemical‑resistant, heavy‑duty
• Texin 985U / Texin 1209 polyurethane hoses: NSF‑approved for potable water (NSF 61)
• Velcro‑attached canopy walls for air‑lock integrity
• Plastic containment pool frame

What’s Included & What Each Component Does — DAT®4070S (4‑Line, 3 or 4 Stage)

DAT®4070S Inflatable Decon Shelter (14.5′ W × 23′ L × 9′ H; ~330 sq. ft.)

• Four‑line, multi‑stage enclosure with heavy‑duty air‑berm frame for high‑throughput CBRN decon.
• Deploys in under three minutes for rapid operations.

Integrated Ground Floor & Containment Berm

• Permanently attached floor with raised berm to capture decon runoff inside the unit.
• Designed for continuous operations with pump‑out as needed.

Four Parallel Lanes with Stage Segments

• Undress Privacy Area at entrance.
• Two Shower Stations per Lane (detergent shower #1 and rinse shower #2).
• Redress Privacy Area at exit.
• Can be configured to operate 3 or 4 stages, or to handle two personnel in separate showers simultaneously in each lane.

Fixed Shower Heads & Handheld Spray Guns

• 24 fixed shower heads (4 sections × 3 heads per station across the lanes) for broad, even coverage.
• 12 multifunction spray guns on coiled 1/2″ hoses with shutoffs and quick‑disconnects for targeted washdown and delicate areas.

Dividers & Flow Control

• Three (3) center divider curtains to separate and control all four lines.
• Twelve (12) quarter cross‑divider curtains to create stage privacy (undress → wash → rinse → redress) and manage patient flow.
• Dirty‑entry and clean‑exit full‑closure, roll‑up zip doors to maintain one‑way movement.

Structural Roof Berms & Support

• Top center air berm running the full roof line.
• Two secondary longitudinal roof berms flanking the center (approx. 18–24″ off center).
• Lateral roof support berms across the span (model‑dependent) to enhance load‑bearing strength and stability.

Ventilation, Windows & Lighting Access

• Four roll‑up windows (two per side) and two skylights for visibility and situational awareness.
• Eight 19″ air/HVAC duct inlets–outlets (two at each corner) with tie closures for ventilation or clothing/gear transfer.
• Two upper air vents to promote airflow and heat release.
• Electrical duct (small pass‑through) for safely routing power to interior lighting or accessories.

Inflation & Safety Hardware

• Two high‑pressure and two low‑pressure inflation/deflation valves for controlled setup and takedown.
• Air inflation hose with safety cord.
• Pressure‑relief valve to prevent over‑pressurization.
• Electric inflator/deflator for hands‑free, rapid deployment.
• High‑pressure SCBA fitting for field inflation where power isn’t available.

Anchoring & Stability Kit

• Twelve metal stakes, ground anchor points, and four tie‑down ropes for securement in wind and uneven terrain.
• Four D‑rings for additional tie‑offs and gear anchoring.
• Hammer included for staking.

Reflective Safety Markings

• Reflective vents at each end and reflective striping to delineate the built‑in decon pool and key entry/exit points—optimized for low‑light operations.

Potable‑Water Hose Systems

• Hoses manufactured from potable‑water‑approved polyurethane, suitable for direct contact with personnel during decon.

Operator Essentials

• Repair kit with patches/adhesive for quick field fixes.
• Operator manual with setup, operation, and maintenance guidance.
• Shelter sleeve/carry bag for storage and transport.

Expansion‑Ready (System Connectivity & Options)

• Connects to additional FSI shelters/showers to scale throughput.
• Compatible with optional accessories such as water heater, detergent injector, waste pump, LED lighting kits, multi‑manifold hose distribution, bladder tanks, tarps, patient conveyors, and spine boards.
