IONSCAN 600


 

 

 

 

Product Description:

Portable explosives and narcotics trace detector

The IONSCAN 600 is a highly sensitive trace detector, in a lightweight, portable desktop configuration.  It can be used to accurately detect and identify a wide range of military, commercial and homemade explosives threats and common illegal/controlled narcotics, including the highly potent synthetic fentanyl opioids that are rapidly spreading across the world.

The compact, lightweight IONSCAN 600 is easily portable; it includes hot-swappable batteries for full operation even when mains power is not available.  The unit can be relocated while fully operational (without any downtime) enabling it to be used in a much broader range of screening environments.

It features a proprietary non-radioactive ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) source, which means licensing from national nuclear regulatory agencies is not required.  This allows the detector to be used without time-consuming radiation testing and administration, and enables easy licence-free transport from location to location.

The IONSCAN 600 is unique in working with cost-effective, single-use swabs suitable for both manual and wand sampling.  Designed for efficient trace-particle pick-up, these proprietary swabs reduce contamination risk and offer the most hygienic method for sampling a person’s hands.

Feature Highlights

• Detection and identification in less than 8 seconds
• Simultaneously detects and identifies explosives and narcotics
• Non-radioactive IMS source
• Small, lightweight and portable
• Optional integrated printer
• Single use, disposable sampling swabs
• Approved/certified by ECAC, CAAC and TSA (Air Cargo)

SABRE 5000


 

 

 

 

Product Description:

Hand-held trace detector

The SABRE 5000 is the smallest, lightest tri-mode handheld system available for detecting trace amounts of explosives; chemical-warfare agents; and toxic industrial chemicals and narcotics. With the ability to detect a wide range of threats, it is a cost-effective instrument for security professionals and military agencies that require portability and flexibility to perform their duties.

The SABRE 5000 is programmed to detect and identify over 40 threat substances in approximately 20 seconds. Threats such as common peroxide-based, volatile and unstable chemicals often used to construct improvised explosive devices (IED) and ammonium nitrate, commonly used in homemade explosives.

Additional features include automatic self-calibration, onboard diagnostics for simple troubleshooting assistance, a truncated alarm feature for faster clear-down, and an onboard library that can be programmed to add new substances as new threats emerge, dependent on needs.

Feature Highlights

• Smallest and lightest tri-mode detector available
• Detects trace amounts of explosives, chemical agents and narcotics
• Faster clear-down with truncated alarm
• Continuous automatic vapour sampling in both positive and negative modes for CWA/TIC detection
• 4-hour battery
