CONCENTRATIONS
All doses have high concentrations of Capsaicin and MC (Major Capsaicinoids). The quality and balance of the capsaicin mixture which we fill PHS with, is the most important component of the pepper spray and is our main competitive advantage and our greatest secret.
HOW CAPSAICIN WORKS
The active substance dihydrocapsaicin is a completely natural substance.
Capsaicin affects the respiratory system, eyes, skin, mucous membranes and impairs motor skills. When exposed to this substance, the body reacts as if it was burnt. The part of the body that has come into contact with the active substance becomes red, irritated and will secrete fluid.Most of the symptoms mentioned disappear spontaneously after 15 minutes, and completely within 3 hours. The strength of symptoms depends on the concentration of the major capsainoids. Since the concentration of capsaicin is not a guarantee of the solution strength, we paid special attention to the concentration of MC (Major Capsaicinoids). Capsaicinoids are compounds that adhere directly to our receptors (TRPV-1) and the peppers cause heating up.
Therefore, a powerful spray that is effective must have a high MC concentration.
The pure dihydrocapsaicin has a MC of 10%, which would be equivalent to 16,000,000 SHU.
PHS in this offer has strengths of 1.2% MC to 1.33% MC, which includes PHS in the very top of the tear gas range. Laboratory testing (HPLC) has shown strengths of the extract of up to 2,445,000 SHU or % MC (major capsaicinoids) of up to 1,33%. By comparison, everything above 80,000 SHU is considered extremely hot.

ALL AROUND TECHNOLOGY!
Innovative technology for releasing the capsaicin mixture from all positions. All our pepper sprays are equipped with the latest generation valves which enable reliable releasing of the capsaicin mixture from all positions of the bottle.
In this way, we have eliminated the drawback that many pepper sprays have which makes them useless if the bottle is not upright during the operation.
PHS adapts to all conditions and not vice versa and therefore its efficiency and reliability is at the highest possible level.

SECURITY CAPS DESIGN
The functional design of the security cap prevents accidental or spontaneous activation . In addition, the ergonomic design allows easy targeting of the attacker. It is also easier to use if you wear gloves. Special grooves on the inside of the security cap prevent finger slippage and secure pressure on the actuator.
PRACTICAL CANISTER VOLUME
Smaller canister volumes enable easy carrying and due to the high concentration and strength of the capsaicin extract they are sufficient for repeated use. Our MK-2 and MK-3 bottles are ideal for personal use. MK-3 bottle contains an amount that is sufficient for an extremely hot jet for 10-13 short presses on the actuator.
RANGE
Thanks to inovative elastomer technology we do not need propellant gas to achive better spray performance than any other spray. High accuracy in shooting. It does not produce an aerosol when spraying. This gives us the possibility to act on an individual attacker within a group, without contaminating the whole area of action or any other innocents. Due to high pressure filling, new valves and actuators and a carefully balanced capsaicin mixture, we have developed a wide range of sprays. In our tests all PHS pepper sprays released the capsaicin mixture at a distance of 4-6 meters. Based on this, we can guarantee the effectiveness of PHS at an attacker’s distance of at least 4 meters. The released jet proved to be the best compared to other forms of spraying in open air under windy conditions. This is also the main reason why we have all our pepper sprays equipped with actuators that release the OC mixture in the form of a jet, rather than a mist or foam.
