Mail and Parcel Inspection for Explosive Threat Detection

The EMIS MAIL Parcel and Letter Inspection System from CEIA USA automatically detects metallic threat components commonly used in letter bombs and improvised explosive devices (IEDs). Using CEIA electromagnetic analysis technology, the system identifies detonators, batteries, trigger circuits, and other metallic components concealed inside letters and parcels. The scanner processes mail items up to 18 inches wide and 3 inches thick, providing high-speed inspection without nuisance alarms from common office materials such as staples, paper clips, and binding spirals.

Compliant with NIJ 0602.02 Department of Justice detection requirements, the system features digital programming and a high-resolution OLED graphic display that shows pinpointing zone locations and bar-graph detection indicators. A built-in self-test system and permanent memory storage ensure reliable operation without backup batteries.

The rechargeable NiMH battery operation provides up to 12 hours of continuous screening, enabling portable deployment for mailrooms and mobile inspection environments. Additional inspection settings support correctional facility parcel screening, while an optional radioactive material detection module provides gamma alarm indication with activity level assessment and counts per second measurement.

Specifications

NIJ 0602.02 Compliance

Compliant with NIJ 0602.02 Department of Justice detection requirements, the system meets established standards for mail and parcel inspection used in correctional facilities and government security operations.

Automatic Threat Detection

The system automatically detects detonators, batteries, trigger circuits, and other metallic components commonly used in letter bombs and improvised explosive devices. It inspects letters and parcels up to 18 inches wide and 3 inches thick, providing reliable detection without requiring operator image interpretation.

Low Nuisance Alarms

Advanced discrimination technology prevents alarms from common office materials such as staples, paper clips, and metal binding spirals. This allows high-volume mailrooms to maintain efficient inspection workflows without unnecessary screening interruptions.

High-Resolution OLED Display

A high-resolution OLED graphic display provides clear visual indication of inspection results, including pinpointing zone location and bar-graph signal strength. LED indicators display system status and alarm conditions for fast operator response.

Dual Power Operation

The system operates using standard mains power or optional rechargeable NiMH batteries, enabling up to 12 hours of continuous inspection for portable deployment. An integrated battery charger supports convenient operation in both fixed and mobile mail screening environments.

Correctional Facility Screening

For correctional facility contraband searches, the SAMD can help officers quickly screen items for concealed metallic threats during inmate searches. Its portable design also allows officers to rapidly scan personal items such as books, clothing, and other belongings during inmate search procedures. This fast, non-intrusive process helps security teams detect hidden metallic threats while keeping search operations efficient.

Accessories

Radiation Detection Module

Optional module enabling detection of radioactive sources during mail inspection. The system provides gamma alarm indication with activity level assessment (low, medium, high) and counts per second measurement, supporting dual-threat screening for metallic and radiological materials.

EMIS MAIL Mobile Station

Mobile cart system designed for portable deployment and flexible positioning of the EMIS MAIL unit. The station supports temporary installations and mobile mail screening operations.

Transport Case

Protective transport case designed for secure shipping and storage of the EMIS MAIL system when relocating equipment or during periods of non-use.

Rechargeable Battery Pack

Optional 6-cell NiMH battery pack providing up to 12 hours of continuous operation. The system includes an integrated battery charger with approximately 6-hour recharge time, supporting portable mail inspection operations.
