OSI Systems receives RTT security inspection systems delivery contract

OSI Systems’ security division Rapiscan Systems has been awarded a contract by an undisclosed international customer for the delivery of security inspection systems.

Under the $5m contract, the company will deliver the Rapiscan Real Time Tomography (RTT) 110 screening system.

OSI Systems CEO Deepak Chopra stated: "The RTT110 is an excellent choice as it is approved to the most demanding European standard for explosives detection."

The ECAC Standard 3 EDS approved RTT 110 screening system is capable of offering detailed 3-D images of the item being scanned at speeds of between 1500 to 1800 bags per hour.

The system can also be used to scan and detect automated threats in packages, containers and baggage.

Designed to comply with TSA and other regulatory standards for automated explosive detection, the system eases integration with high speed inline baggage handling systems with its full belt speed of 0.5mps.

Together with fewer moving parts compared to conventional CT systems, the scanning system also offers advanced networking capabilities for matrixed deployment.
