Critical Infrastructure Protection

Protecting against CBRNE hazards in and around critical infrastructure can be easily achieved with strategically placed detectors and complimentary light role response equipment by Bruker. Our instrument provide information in clear and unambiguous form - a key feature for effective consequence management.

Introduction

Protect, Integrate and Be Prepared to React

The term "Critical Infrastructure" refers to the basic backbone of a functioning society’s economy. Examples include facilities and services associated with power, oil, tele-communications, agriculture, water and sewerage, public health and transportation. However, to protect Critical Infrastructure fully, we need to consider the human aspect. This includes the people that work in these facilities and in many cases, the customers or users that rely on this infrastructure.

Airports

Airport Safety and Security

International regulations require that passengers who intend to board an aircraft are randomly tested for the presence of trace explosives. The science of trace explosives detection is well established and is based on the fact that if a person handles explosives, even though they may wash their hands afterwards, minute traces of explosive will still remain. These traces can be passed on readily to their personal belongings, which can include mobile phones, laptops, keyboards, laptop bags and various other items of baggage.

Improving Airside Access Control and Airport Safety

It is generally agreed that one of the most obvious methods of taking an illicit explosive device onto a passenger aircraft is via hand baggage, articles of clothing and in some extreme cases by virtue of “body bombs”.

However, for maximum security, the detection processes applied to passengers should be applied equally to the ground staff, ground crew and other maintenance operators who enter the airport via the various airside access points. As with passengers, these personnel should be tested regularly for the presence of trace explosives on the property and clothing which accompanies them.

As with passengers, people can be chosen at random or may be chosen based on both gathered intelligence, which can be based on behaviour monitoring techniques, and/or the discovery of the presence of suspicious materials in articles they are taking on site.

Narcotics and Explosives Threat Detection in Airports

TheDE-tector(ECAC certified) is a bench-top implementation of a system that detects traces of both drugs (narcotics) and explosives. It plays a key role in both air passenger security screening where it is found in combination with hand baggage X-ray systems.

The BrukerRoadRunner- a battery-portable, hand-held, version of this technology that affords a greater degree of transportability; literally a "go anywhere" device. Just like the bench-top DE-tector, this technology will detect traces of both drugs and explosives.

The hand-portable System helps users in major facilities to improve their productivity as the device can be carried round with them and suspicious packages tested at will. This lightweight system weighs less than 3,5Kg and features hot-swappable batteries for extended deployments.

建筑物

建筑保护

未保护的供暖,通风和空调(HVAC)建筑物(例如办公室,银行和政府机构)是恐怖化学攻击的主要目标。在所有情况下,仅需要少量的有毒物质,如果未受保护或不监测,这些毒素会迅速传播并给建筑物乘员带来创伤结果。

Dedicated Solutions to Protect Buildings

除了通过物理或机械手段或设计设备(例如Bruker)保护入口外,还可以保护入口TIMON(Toxic Industrials MONitor) can be installed that measure the air quality 24/7 and alarm if a toxic threat is discovered. When a threat is detected theTIMON, will alarm (identifying the threat and concentration) and the output of the instrument can be configured to take remedial action to protect the building occupants. These actions can include shutting down air inlets, isolating specific intakes or diverting the airflow to waste. In addition to the remedial actions the alarm system will alert security so that evacuation procedures may be initiated.

Concerts

Pop Concert Security and Safety

Pop concerts represent a microcosm of the population who set out with one goal; to enjoy themselves. Regrettably, these types of major events often attract people with a different goal; to sell and to distribute drugs or narcotics. Where intelligence information suggests that drugs or narcotics might be on site, people and their belongings can be checked for traces of drugs quickly and easily.

Increasing the Safety of Concerts

个人财产可以擦洗,以确定如果一个ny drug traces are present, and this includes items like mobile phones, cameras and hand baggage. Alternatively, a detection system that detects the volatile vapours of narcotics such as methamphetamine can be readily used to make a quick check for the presence of drugs in bags, pockets and clothing.

The BrukerRoadRunneris a hand-held, battery-operated portable device that can be used both to check for trace amounts of explosives and narcotics. The system can be used in swab or sniff mode. The swab mode allows the user to check for both drugs and explosives whilst the sniff mode is used for specific explosive vapours.

The BrukerDE-tector是一种简单且快速使用的混合药物和炸药痕量检测器。A reusable swab is rubbed on the personal property of visitors, and this swab is inserted into the detection device. The system then informs the operator by means of a traffic light system and substance description, whether or not an illicit substance has been found.

Prisons

Prison and Remand Center Security

政府鼓励监狱和还押中心最大程度地减少麻醉品的潜在入学。在许多这样的设施中,由于周长巡逻和围栏线监测技术的增加,非法材料受到的材料的威胁在很大程度上得到了必威手机客户端缓解。在监狱和还押中心发现的大多数麻醉品在很大程度上被游客非法进口到囚犯。

检测毒品/毒品和爆炸物in Prisons

Based on either intelligence information, behavioural monitoring or by random selection, visitors to such centres can be screened to detect whether they have been in contact with narcotics.

TheDE-tector是一种简单且快速使用的混合药物和炸药痕量检测器。在访客的个人财产上擦了可重复使用的拭子,该拭子被插入探测器设备。该系统通过交通信号灯系统通知操作员是否发现了非法物质。

TheRoadRunneris a hand-held, battery-operated portable device that can be used both to check for explosives in a vapour mode, or can be used in trace detection mode using the swab that is rubbed on the personal property of the chosen visitor. Text associated with the discovery shows the name of the drug that has been discovered and the necessary action can then be taken with the specific visitor.

Subway

地铁,地铁和地下威胁保护

Metros, underground rail systems and subway train stations are prime targets for a terrorist attack. With millions of people using mass transit systems daily, even small amounts of toxic materials can have a devastating effect.

预警系统

Early warning systems are indispensable, and Bruker has developed a detection and warning system that will respond to the slightest trace of chemical threat materials in the air. DesignatedTIMON专为秘密操作而设计,并模仿一块电动开关设备。TIMONdetection systems sample the air at a selected point and will send an alarm to a remote control room if a chemical weapon agent or a toxic industrial chemical substance is detected. The detection instrument can be located at the sampling point, or up to 15 metres from that point so that the sampling point can, itself, be installed covertly. Distances between the detector and the control room can range from a few metres to over 90 metres, and this can be extended significantly by fibre optic communication.

Wide Area Chemical Threat Detection

For wide area chemical threat detection, such as large platforms or stations, Bruker offers theRapidplus. It's designed to detect chemical weapons and toxic industrial chemicals with the largest real time detection library in its class. The scanning system ofRapidpluscan cover large swept areas so that a single unit can identify threats emanating from points in a large concourse. This instrument integrates the chemical detection system with a video facility. In this way, the control room can target theRapidplusto monitor one or more specific areas of the infrastructure such as the choke points of entrances and exits, or can steer the detector to areas where suspicious activity is identified. With a range from a few metres to some kilometres the device can even be installed to look down train tunnels to detect evolving threats.

Stadiums

体育场安全与保护

体育场代表了恐怖主义的重点,因为在比赛或比赛日,它们不仅代表着观众的缩影,而且经常出席VIP。使用常规化学检测工具巡逻此类区域将很难,体育场总是很大,活动必须激烈,这些活动可能会使游客感到震惊。在这种情况下,最好以秘密方式运行任何化学技术。通常来自永久秘密安装。

Wide Area Chemical Threat Detection

The BrukerRapidplus是一种被动扫描红外检测系统,非常适合监测大量体育场。该系统旨在检测传统的化学武器和90多种有毒工业化学气体或蒸气。必威东盟体育Rapidplusintegrates a scanning detection system and a colour video camera.

In this way, control room or security personnel can direct theRapidplusto monitor threats from specific areas of the stadium, including choke points such as entrances and exits, or can direct the detection process to areas where suspicious activity might be taking place in the crowd.Rapidplusnot only detects the threat substance, it identifies it too. For example, this allows the operator to discriminate between alcohol vapour (from the consumption of alcoholic beverages!) and other substances that could indicate that a serious event is taking place.
