Purpose, Application, and Risk Environment

Purpose: Explosive Screening systems are deployed to support the detection and identification of explosive substances during security inspections where visual checks or imaging alone are insufficient. The objective is to enable informed decisions while minimizing exposure and disruption.

Application Environments: These systems are used at airports, border checkpoints, government facilities, critical infrastructure sites, mailrooms, and other security sensitive locations where suspicious items or residues must be assessed quickly.

Operational Risk Context:  Explosive threats may be concealed within objects, carried on persons, or introduced through parcels and cargo. Manual inspection increases risk and uncertainty. Explosive screening technologies provide a controlled method to assess potential threats while supporting consistent operational workflows.

Functional Capability Overview

1. Detection of Explosive Substances 

Supports identification of explosive materials and related compounds during security screening procedures.

2. Non-Intrusive and Controlled Analysis 

Allows analysis of items, samples, or residues without opening containers or introducing unnecessary handling risks.

3. Rapid On Site Decision Support 

Delivers results quickly to support immediate operational decisions and escalation when required.

4. Integration into Layered Screening Processes 

Designed to complement imaging, trace detection, and physical screening as part of a broader security concept.

5. Portable and Flexible Deployment 

Supports use in fixed locations or mobile screening scenarios depending on operational needs.
