Historically, EDS equipment has been used in restrictive settings, for example to screen high volume traffic (at airport screening points, border crossing points, etc.), and for de-mining. This limited scope stems from a combination of high equipment costs, specialized skill requirements for operation, and the need to control the environment within which EDS is used, in order to achieve a high probability of detection and low false alarm rates.
SNIFFEX® was designed to be used by those who have legitimate concerns about threats from unauthorized explosives and munitions. Because a wide variety of potential customers have shared concerns, SNIFFEX® is applicable to a wide variety of market segments. In order to maximize production and marketing efficiency, management recognizes the importance of establishing a product line, which reaches across multiple market segments.
SNIFFEX® is unique compared to all other EDS products both existing and under development. For example, existing and emerging detection systems are typically too cost prohibitive and limited in scope to be adequate for use in public schools, in banks, by police patrols, peace mission troops etc. It is pocket size hand held personal device for detection of wide types of explosives on base of presence of Nitro Oxides ions. The energy source create a excite signals; unique for this method of detection A two-point interference field has a line of prominence along an axis between the source and target material. Using this approach, detecting an interference field pattern an operator could the presence of Nitro oxides ions. Determining the line of prominence gives direction to the material; and its location is achieved through triangulation.

Two, three measurements from different directions are required for precise location in case of present target. Concrete and brick wall are penetrate able as well as metals structures containers and vehicles.
Few hours education and training is required provided by authorized instructor. SNIFFEX® is tool and the practice in increases the skills. Two trained operators simultaneously are able to find and locate present target for a minute.
During last six months the device was tested with various types of explosives in different situation. Some special agencies are using SNIFFEX® as additional technique in their daily duties. |
