Smiths Detection Equips NATO with Vehicle Scanning Technology in Luxembourg

摘要

Smiths Detection announced it has completed the delivery and installation of a mobile high-energy inspection system trailer, the HCVM XT, at the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) in Capellen, Luxembourg. The NSPA site requires all external construction vehicles, and other equipment providers, to be scanned for potential threats that enter the site such as incendiary and explosive devices, radiological materials, weaponry and unauthorized surveillance or covert equipment. Smiths Detection's HCVM XT X-ray screening system efficiently screens for threats at the NSPA site while meeting demanding international security-screening requirements with a minimal size footprint and external infrastructure. The HCVM XT has a throughput of up to 25 vehicles an hour in mobile scanning mode and up to 100 trucks an hour in pass-through mode, with a steel penetration of up to 320mm, providing detailed X-ray images that also distinguishes organic and inorganic material.
