The ACRO-P.E.T. (Peroxide Explosives Tester) is the first
explosives identifier of its kind, effective against TATP and other
Peroxide Based IEDs. It is light, easy to use and gives instant
results, even when explosive quantities are small. ACRO-P.E.T.’s
high sensitivity, low minimum identification levels and low false
positive and negative alarm rates make it a clear leader in explosives
identification.
Current explosives identification methods used in airports and other
high-risk settings are either CTX or XRD, and are often time-consuming
and inconvenient with a relatively high false alarm rate. They are
not effective against peroxide-based IEDs.
Peroxide Based IEDs:
- Look harmless, like sugar
- Are often home-made
- Are not dense enough to arouse suspicion when screened by CTX
machines
- Can be made of ingredients readily available at supermarkets
and hardware stores
- Are being used increasingly by terrorists worldwide
The ACRO-P.E.T. is a disposable, pocket-sized device, which:
- Immediately and accurately identifies peroxide-based explosives
such as Triacetone Triperoxide (TATP), Diacetone Diperoxide (DADP),
and HexaMethalene-TriperoxideDiamine (HMTD)
- Allows security personnel to cut down on delays and costs involved
with passenger screening
- Can be used independently or as part of a total systems solution
- Environmentally friendly posing no biological hazard whatsoever
- Disposable
- Perfectly safe to use
- Cost effective
Perfect for a range of end-users, the ACRO-P.E.T. can be implemented
for use by a wide range of anti-terrorist organizations and Law Enforcement
Agencies, such as:
1. Transport security organizations at:
- Airports
- Seaports
- Train stations and depots
- Bus stations
2. Border crossing authorities
3. First Intervention Forces (FIFs)
4. Police
- Specialized explosives units such as bomb squads
- Foot and vehicle patrols
5. Military services
- Specialized explosives units such as bomb squads
- Foot and vehicle patrols
6. Special agencies
The ACRO-P.E.T. is a patented, revolutionary technology in explosives
identification, for which the market continues to grow with the
threat of terrorist attacks. |
