Items Controlled
a. Designed for continuous operation and usable for the detection of chemical warfare agents or precursor chemicals controlled by 1C350 'minimum detection limit' of 0.3 mg/m 3 ;
Related Controls
See ECCN 2D351 for "software" for toxic gas monitors and monitoring systems, and their dedicated detecting "parts" and "components," controlled by this ECCN. Also see ECCN 1A004, which controls chemical detection systems and "specially designed" "parts" and "components" therefor that are "specially designed" or modified for detection or identification of chemical warfare agents, but not "specially designed" for military use, and ECCN 1A995, which controls certain detection equipment, "parts" and "components" not controlled by ECCN 1A004 or by this ECCN.
Items may also be controlled under the ITAR (22 CFR 121) administered by the State Department Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC).
Related Definitions
(1) For the purposes of this entry, the term "dedicated" means committed entirely to a single purpose or device. (2) For the purposes of this entry, the term "continuous operation" describes the capability of the equipment to operate on line without human intervention. The intent of this entry is to control toxic gas monitors and monitoring systems capable of collection and detection of samples in environments such as chemical plants, rather than those used for batch-mode operation in laboratories.
See EAR Part 772 (15 CFR 772) for complete definitions of terms used in the CCL.
