SureScan x1000 Explosives Detection System for Checked Baggage Screening Achieves ECAC EDS Standard 3

November 17, 2015 - Next-Generation Design and Technology, The SureScan x1000 Multi-Energy Stationary Gantry Computed Tomography Explosives Detection System
(CT EDS) already TSA Certified, is now ECAC EDS Standard 3



ENDICOTT, NY, USA – November 17, 2015 – SureScan Corporation, an emerging leader bringing advanced technology and manufacturing to the homeland security marketplace, today announced that its x1000 checked baggage screening solution has successfully achieved European Civil Aviation Conference’s (ECAC) Explosive Detection System (EDS) Standard 3. The SureScan x1000 was the first multi-energy stationary gantry CT EDS to be TSA certified, and is now ECAC EDS Standard 3.

“We have engineered a solution that is future proof and operates at a much lower life cycle cost compared to those installed in airports.” said LeeAnn Levesque, President and CEO of SureScan. “Obtaining ECAC EDS Standard 3 positions the SureScan x1000 as the most comprehensive, next-generation solution for airports and their stakeholders, realizing considerable savings year-over-year.”

The SureScan x1000 next-generation CT EDS solution is:
  • Built from the ground up for checked baggage screening in an airport environment vs. inferior solutions adapted from less demanding medical applications. 
  • Flexible and future proof, engineered for simple field software upgrades for emerging threat detection and higher belt speeds forever increasing and faster passenger baggage throughput.
  • The most cost effective solution available with reduced power consumption, cooling efficiencies, self-calibration and a stationary gantry with no moving parts.
  • CT technology enhanced with multi-energy detection for atomic number analysis enabling the x1000 to detect threats at a low false alarm rate, today and into the future. 
  • Screens large bags with a rectangular tunnel throughout providing jam-free, continuous operation and faster throughput.
