TSA Certified x1000 Multi-Energy Stationary Gantry<br />
CT Explosives Detection System for Checked Baggage<br />
Screening SureScan Corporation Brings NEW Technology<br />
to the Market, Focused on Lower Life Cycle Costs <strong>The</strong><br />
SureScan x1000 checked baggage-screening solution,<br />
is engineered and designed with innovative technology<br />
and low maintenance and lifecycle costs. Built from the<br />
ground up for checked baggage screening rather than<br />
an adaptation of medical technology, the x1000 is suited<br />
to the airport environment and designed with a baggage-handling<br />
interface in mind. Unlike a medical environment,<br />
baggage-handling areas in airports are constrained,<br />
dusty environments with operation every day,<br />
365 days a year. <strong>The</strong> x1000 is designed to install and<br />
function seamlessly in this environment. <strong>The</strong> x1000 is<br />
TSA certified and currently being utilized in Department<br />
of Homeland Security research projects and undergoing<br />
ECAC Standard 3 approval. Features include: Stationary<br />
Gantry: No moving parts, low maintenance and replacement<br />
costs Large Rectangular Tunnel throughout: Fits<br />
tall and wide baggage, preventing costly bag jams and<br />
system downtime Multi-Energy Detection: For atomic<br />
number analysis detects current and emerging threats<br />
such as home made explosives (HMEs) with a high level<br />
of accuracy and low false alarm rates Efficient Platform:<br />
Easy to set up and self-calibrates Decreased Power Usage:<br />
50 percent lower operating power consumption<br />
and simple air-cooling eliminates pricey air condition<br />
operation and fees Upgradable Processing and Algorithm<br />
Engines: Field-upgradeable options to address<br />
