taser Flashcards
(32 cards)
two types of tasers
X26e x26p
how does EMI work
taser sends electrical impulses that overpower the same signals that the brain produces making the body lose control
EMI vs Drive stun
EMI effects sensory and motor
Drive effects sensory
Amps over volts
Amps are the electric current
Volts is the pushing of the electricity
x26p has.0021 amps
Carpet static discharge
taser volts
30,000v
open circuit- 50,000
m26 into body ( 5000v)
x26 into body (1200)
probes
probes can arc through 2 cumulative inches of clothing.
or 1 inch per probe.
-follow path of least resistance
-great the spread the more effective
energy will not be spread unless in-between the probes or directly with them.
common effects
- subject will immediately fall
- yelling
- involuntary muscle contractions
- locked legs
- dazed
- vertigo
- tingling
- critical stress amnesia
side effects and risks
- blister/burn marks
- eye injury of shot to high
- can ignite flammable liquids or gases
- strong muscle contractions
- could tear, strain,back injuries or stress fractures from strong muscle contractions
- pregnant women can cause contractions
- secondary injuries
- PAIN
- drive stun scaring
digital pulse controller
measures time between each energy pulse discharged,,the DPC then regulates the power throughout and maintains a constant pulse rate
DPC
runs at 19 pulses per second then slows to 15
CID display on x26e
DPM power level, burst time COUNT DOWN, warranty, re-arm required status, and illumination settings
DPM
digital power mag, used in x26e.
- 10 year shelf life
- 300 or 195 5 second rides
- don’t remove battery for more than 4 hours
replace dpm
20% or less use for training
1% or less replace
0%dispose
x26p battery
- PPM
- 3 3 volt lithium ion batteries
500 5 second rides
APPM
TPPM
XPPM
- Automatically shuts off after 5 seconds, tone plays at 4 seconds
- extended finger finger grip
- second cartridge storage location
smart technology
When the probes arnt fully into the body(stuck in clothes)
the probe will send higher burst of electricity causing it to arc into the body to complete the circuit 63 Microcolombs are delivered to hit NMI
Charge metering
an advanced calibration system that measures and adjusts the output of each pulse.
-uses the Silicon controlled receiver which measures the output 20 times per second constantly adjusting output levels for precise charge delivery.
pulse calibration
pulse by pulse monitoring of the x26p electrical output.
trilogy logs
- event log
- pulse log
- engineering log
event log
records the following
- D/T safety was switched on
- when trigger is pulled
- duration
- temp
- battery strength
- time put in safe mode
Pulse log
- output of each pulse
engineering log
used by taser to diagnose id the taser was operating properly durning an event.
types of cartridges
- Yellow ( 15 feet) Reg probes
- silver ( 21 feet) Reg probes
- green (25 feet) Longer Heavier probes xp probes
- orange ( 35 feet) longer heavier XP probes
- blue (21 feet non conductive shorter LS probes)
propulsion for 15-21 foot
1800 psi
160ft per second
max range 15 or 21 ft
