A measured amount of reagent is placed in the unit’s test chamber with a 20g sample and two Pulverizing Steel Balls, where it reacts with moisture to pressurize the chamber. The reagent is sold in a 10lb (4.5kg) can. Empty 1lb Metal Can for Reagent is available separately for taking smaller amounts of reagent into the field for testing.
