Product Description:
Sniffex is unique to all known EDS products, both existing and under development. Most detection systems are typically too cost prohibitive and limited in scope to be adequate for use in public schools, banks, police patrols, or in military troop use. It is a pocket sized, hand held device that detects numerous types of explosives on the basis of the presence of nitrous oxide ions.
The energy source in Sniffex creates an excite signal, unique for this method of detection. A two-point interference field has a line of prominence along an axis between the source signal and the target material. Using this approach of detecting an interference field pattern an operator can identify the presence of nitrous oxide radicals. Determining the line of prominence gives direction to the material; and its location is achieved through triangulation. Two or three measurements from different directions are required for precise location of a target. In addition to being able to detect explosives in open areas, Sniffex can penetrate concrete as well as metals structures, containers, and vehicles.
Sniffex® can not detect explosives which do not contain in their chemical structure nitrous oxides. These include liquid explosives (peroxidizable organic chemicals) which are very unstable and dangerous to the carrier himself.
Sniffex operators need only a few hours of education and training provided by an authorized instructor to become proficient. Like any precision tool, practice increases the user’s skills. Training classes and practical “on the job” training increase the users accuracy in localizing explosives.
Product Uses:
Sniffex® is a pocket-sized, hand held device for the detection of more than 90% of the explosives used worldwide including nitrous oxide based explosives such as:
• TNT
• Dynamite
• Ammonite (diesel)
• PETN
• RDX
• Gun powder
• Semtex
• C4
• Other explosives containing NO2 or NO3
There is an extensive variety of applications for Sniffex™ including but not limited to the following:
- Building searches (warehouses, schools, banks)
- Parking lots
- Crowd security
- Aircraft, luggage and cargo
- Police patrols
- S.W.A.T. teams
- Land mine detection
- Military patrols
