EMIS-Mail

Mail scanner for detecting letter bombs and improvised explosive devices in small packages

The EMIS® MAIL is designed to detect a variety of metallic threat objects, including detonators, batteries, trigger circuits, and other metallic components of parcel bombs, without generating false alarms for harmless items such as metal staples, paper clips, and metal binding spirals.

The EMIS® MAIL is very user-friendly and provides fast and automatic alarm/no alarm confirmation for each inspected package. Its compact, ergonomic design and power supply via mains connection or integrated NiMH batteries enable independent operation at various locations. An optional integrated detector for radioactive substances is also available to detect threats from radioactive material.

The EMIS® MAIL is particularly suitable for use in prisons or correctional facilities and features special settings for package inspection there. In addition to meeting the strictest safety and security standards, the EMIS® MAIL also complies with EU Regulation 185/2010 for the inspection of letters and packages.

Key features of the CEIA EMIS® MAIL:

  • Easy installation and setup
  • Simple and fast operation, only minimal training required
    Automatic inspection of packages and letters up to 450 mm × 75 mm
  • No calibration or regular maintenance required
  • Independent operation via mains power or integrated NiMH batteries
  • Automatic inspection of packages and letters up to 45 cm wide and 7.5 cm thick
  • Detection of detonators, batteries, trigger circuits, and other metallic components of letter bombs
