Airport security
International regulations require passengers to be randomly tested for trace amounts of explosives. If a person has handled explosives, even after washing they still leave minute traces on the body, or on clothing, phones, keyboards and luggage. Due to the large number of persons to be checked, the smoothness and speed of this check must be ensured. A fast and reliable security analysis is therefore necessary to maintain security. The solution is the DE-tector Flex and RoadRunner ion mobility sensors (IMS).
The RoadRunner is a handheld device that weighs less than 3.5 kg and is equipped with spare batteries for extended use. It allows users to handle with ease and efficiency. The DE-tector FLEX is a high-performance ECAC-certified benchtop instrument designed for trace substance identification.
These detectors can operate in steam mode and sample emissions from materials of interest. Alternatively, trace detection measurements can be made using a non-abrasive swab or ticket that is wiped on personal items or clothing.
