Overview
The SEEKERe EDK (Explosive Detection Kit) from DetectaChem is a cutting-edge portable detector designed for US DOD and government agencies worldwide. Features one-handed operation, protective rubber boot, and sealed water-resistant enclosure. Industry-leading automated colorimetrics provide accurate detection with complete screening from a single test. Detects nitroaromatics, nitramines, nitrate esters, HMEs, inorganic nitrates, peroxides, chlorates and derivatives. Includes full-color LCD display, internal rechargeable Li-Ion battery, GPS capability, and wireless data transfer (Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, USB). Ruggedized to MIL-STD-810G with IP66 water resistance. Applications include entry control, asset protection, EOD/bomb squads, law enforcement, hazmat, customs, and border patrol.
How a screening works
The SEEKERe runs handheld automated colorimetrics, so the instrument reads and reports the color result instead of leaving it to the operator’s eye. It handles both trace and bulk samples, and one test screens across all of its explosive classes. There is no radiation source and no bake-out cycle, and the unit is ready in under 30 seconds from power-down. It runs intelligent self-monitoring and needs very little maintenance.
Data, reporting and security
- Storage: more than 100,000 tests on the device
- Reports: built on the device, with GPS tagging available
- Transfer: USB dongle or direct print, with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi wireless capability
- Access: password-protected menus
- Languages: all languages capable
Size and handling
The detector weighs 240 g (8.46 oz) and measures 67 x 111 x 36 mm (2.625 x 4.375 x 1.4 in), small enough for a vest pocket or a go-bag. A 240 x 400 full-color LCD shows results, and the auto-shutoff and screen dimming can be adjusted to stretch battery life on long shifts at entry control points or checkpoints.
Frequently asked questions
What explosives does the SEEKERe EDK detect?
It detects nitroaromatics, nitramines, nitrate esters, homemade explosives (HMEs), inorganic nitrates, peroxides, chlorates and their derivatives. It works on both trace residue and bulk material, including non-visible amounts, and a single test screens across all of these classes. Results show on a full-color display and are stored on the device.
Does the SEEKERe use a radiation source?
No. The SEEKERe uses automated colorimetrics, so there is no radiation source to license or track and no bake-out cycle between samples. It starts up in under 30 seconds from power-down, is ruggedized to MIL-STD-810G and is rated IP66 for water resistance.
