Scansafe allows the user to provide protection of X-Ray scanning equipment, or more accurately, protection FROM such equipment. Should a device detonate whilst being X-Rayed, the body of the scanner will add significantly to the fragmentation. This will increase the potential of the device to damage both people and property. SJH Projects can design a casing for your scanner employing the same protection technology used in the Mailsafe range. The system can be designed as a flat pack kit with built in protected access ports for power supply and monitor cables. The casing will also feature removable access panels for maintenance and repair of the scanner unit within.
To fully investigate the threat and the challenge to provide protection of x-ray scanning equipment, a demonstration with 1kg PE inside a typical conveyor scanner was conducted. The lead encased x-ray source was mounted on the top of the body. No additional fragmentation was built into the threat.
