American Science and Engineering, Inc. Receives Order for Eight ZBVs from South American Law Enforcement Agency
American Science and Engineering, Inc. (AS&E(R), a leader in X-ray detection technology, announced today the receipt of an order for eight Z(R) Backscatter Vans(TM) (ZBV(TM)) from a South American law enforcement agency. The order includes operator training, service, and warranty.
"The ZBV is an ideal tool for law enforcement," said Anthony Fabiano, President and CEO. "The ZBV's maneuverability in both urban and rugged environments makes it an indispensable screening system to find explosive threats and contraband. Its speed and agility allows officials to respond quickly and effectively to potential security risks. This contract is a testament to our global marketing efforts -- helping to make the ZBV the number one selling non-intrusive inspection system for cargo and vehicles."
A breakthrough in X-ray detection technology, AS&E's Z Backscatter Van is a low-cost, highly mobile screening system built into a commercially available delivery van. The ZBV allows for immediate deployment in response to security threats, and its high throughput capability facilitates rapid inspections. The system's unique "drive-by" capability allows one or two operators to conduct X-ray imaging while the ZBV drives past suspect vehicles and objects. For personnel safety in dangerous environments, a remote console is available for operating the system in stationary mode from a distance of up to 500 meters.
