Main features: Inspection of trucks, cars and containers at ports, airports and border checkpoints Two-projection system High throughput: up to 20 trucks per hour. Small dimensions and security perimeter Penetration capacity on steel - up to 410 mm at 9 MeV energy. Small occupied space
The HCVS 9000 series fixed inspection and screening systems (FIS) are designed to optimize inspection procedures at ports, airports and border checkpoints. These systems are used to scan vehicles (including the driver's cabin) and containers to detect dangerous and prohibited items, such as explosives and narcotics, weapons of mass destruction and contraband. The fixed inspection and screening system also allows for verification of customs declarations. The use of FIS reduces the need for manual inspection of vehicles and containers.
The HCVS uses a 9 MeV electron accelerator, providing a penetration capability of up to 410 mm in steel. The throughput capacity is up to 20 vehicles per hour.
The high-performance imaging system provides the operator with detailed radioscopic images of the container or vehicle, allowing for quick and reliable detection of prohibited items inside. The viZual technology, which can be equipped with the HCVS, allows for the separation of organic and inorganic materials in the image, based on the effective atomic number of the substance.
When equipped with the ARD automatic radioactive material detection system, the system can simultaneously detect gamma and/or neutron radiation from fissile materials while scanning.
The dual-view system provides 2 images (top view and side view). This configuration makes it much easier for the operator to detect and accurately localize suspicious items in the cargo.
HCVS systems have proven their high efficiency and are now an indispensable tool for customs and law enforcement agencies around the world.
