K910G Series Density Meter and Contraband Detector
The Model K910G Density Meter and Contraband Detector uses a low-intensity gamma radiation emitter and backscatter scintillation detector to identify differences in density between contraband, including drugs, explosives, weapons, and currency, and the object in which the contraband is hidden.
The Buster density meter and contraband detector emits gamma-ray energy into the object being inspected. A filled space reflects more gamma rays than an empty space. As the Buster is moved across the surface of an object, the measurement is displayed on a digital readout, and an alarm sounds if the density changes.
Easy to Use
Using the Buster for contraband detection is simple. Hold the Buster against the surface of the object being inspected, squeeze the trigger, and turn the instrument on. This opens a shutter inside the shield and directs the energy beam into the object.
As the Buster is swept across the surface, its LCD display updates every half second. Higher numbers indicate increasing density, while lower numbers indicate decreasing density, helping reveal concealed items and hidden compartments.
Look Beneath the Surface
Unlike millimeter-wave, microwave, ultraviolet, or radio-wave technologies, the Buster uses a directed energy beam that can inspect through wood, metal, textiles, plastic, and other materials. Since every material has a specific density, unexpected changes become obvious. The gamma rays cause no damage to the objects being inspected.
FV-Series or FO-Series Articulated Fiberscope
Use the FV-Series or FO-Series Articulated Fiberscope in conjunction with the Buster contraband detector. It has a 1/4-inch-diameter (6 mm), 80-inch-long (2 m), flexible, fuel-resistant insertion tube. Its two-way articulated tip and integral light source permit detailed examination of fuel tanks, vehicle doors, dashboards, textiles, masonry, and hidden spaces of all kinds.
Inspection Probe Kits
Included are several stainless-steel probes with grooves designed to trap contraband when inserted into upholstery, sacks, flower beds, and similar areas. The kit contains everything an interdiction officer needs, including:
- 3/16 × 15-inch Slimline stainless-steel probe
- 3/8 × 15-inch heavy-duty stainless-steel extension with sample-retrieving tip
- 3/8 × 15-inch threaded stainless-steel extension with integral handle
- 3/8 × 15-inch threaded stainless-steel extension section
- P-30N Pocket Pencil Probe® with 4-inch needle and sampling tip
- Military nylon carrying sheath
LRF Laser Range Finder
Laser measuring device used to find false walls, bulkheads, and hidden compartments in truck beds, freight containers, railroad cars, and other spaces with known dimensions.
PM-10 Extension Inspection Mirror with LED Flashlight
Permits viewing into dark and difficult-to-access places, such as beneath vehicles and behind containers.
CT-30 Custom Carrying Case with Wheels
The shock-resistant case is specifically designed to conveniently transport all included tools and instruments. The case measures 24 × 19 × 11 inches and weighs approximately 45 pounds with all instruments.
