The safety features built into Xscann include:

  • Interlock switches installed on all leadshielded panels
  • Several emergency shutdown switches are strategically located
  • The x-ray generator control circuitry is not accessible to site personnel
  • The x-ray generator is automatically switched off if the conveyer belt is stopped or fails
  • Dosage is measured by means of a M4 Diameter dose meter

The X-ray Management System ensures that:

  • Each exposure is measured and controlled according to:
    The legal limit set for the installation (typical 1mS per year )
    The accumulated exposure limits for each individual
  • Each exposure is recorded to a MS SQL Server database.
