US government agency to receive QS-H150 detectors from Implant Sciences

Implant Sciences has been awarded a $585,000 contract to deliver Quantum Sniffer QS-H150 explosives trace detectors to an undisclosed US government agency.

Commenting on the sale order, Implant Sciences Americas general manager Todd Swearingen said that the company’s products have been designed to meet counter-terrorism needs in a wide range of environments.

"The Company has recently received orders from a number of new US Government customers, and we look forward to more in the coming months as our reputation for reliability, low total cost of ownership, ease of use, and precise detection continues to grow," Swearingen added.

Capable of deploying for a much lower total cost of ownership than other approved products, the QS-H150 desktop explosives trace detector features low-maintenance, self-calibrating, and self-clearing design and uses no radioactive materials.

The QS-H150 has been tested in a wide variety of temperatures and hostile environments that range from humid jungles to dry, sand swept deserts to demonstrate its capability with superior operational availability.

The TSA-approved Quantum Sniffer QS-B220 features Ion Mobility Spectrometry (IMS) technology to rapidly detect and identify trace amounts of a variety of military, commercial, and homemade explosives, as well as drugs.

The QS-B220 is capable of lowering maintenance requirements while providing new levels of performance and convenience for desktop trace detection users.
