Unfortunately today, mail bombs are a hazardous safety concern for both private individuals and organisations. Lethal mail bombs are often concealed in a seemingly routine small packages or letters.
The Desktop Electronic Mailscanner can identify parcels and packets of mail that should NOT be opened without further inspection.
It enables the operator to detect metallic letter or parcel bomb components such as detonators, timing devices, shielding and batteries, that may be contained within an envelope or small package measuring up to 15.6 inches in width and a full 2.75 inches in thickness.
Objects are screened from both sides as they are passed through the scanning zone (15.6" x 2.75" opening, 39.6cm x 7cm with unlimited length).
It will automatically detect ferrous and non ferrous metallic objects contained within envelopes or thin packages; it will ignore smaller components, stationary items, including paper clips, tags, pins and staples.
The detector will automatically activate an audio alarm and a visual alarm when it senses a preset level of metal. A factory provided test card is available to verify performance.
