In an era of increasing security challenges, from terrorism to contraband smuggling, security forces, border protection agencies, and military units require advanced, mobile, and reliable tools to detect hidden threats. Traditional inspection methods-whether manual searches or conventional X-ray systems-often fall short in the field when flexibility, speed, and precision are critical.
Enter the 140kV Camera-Type Security Inspection Handheld X-ray Backscatter Machine-a revolutionary portable X-ray scanner designed for real-time, non-intrusive inspection of suspicious packages, vehicles, furniture, walls, and even body-worn threats. Using cutting-edge backscatter X-ray imaging, this handheld device allows operators to visualize the contents of opaque or sealed objects without opening or disassembling them.
Compact, rugged, and designed for demanding field operations, the handheld backscatter system empowers law enforcement, customs agents, and military operatives to uncover weapons, explosives, narcotics, and other contraband in seconds.
Unlike traditional X-ray transmission systems that detect density based on the absorption of rays through an object, backscatter X-ray systems detect scattered radiation reflected back from the surface and near-surface layers of a target. This makes backscatter particularly well-suited for detecting low-density and organic materials-such as plastic explosives, drugs, hidden compartments, and body-worn threats.
The 140kV X-ray source emits a fan-shaped beam
X-rays penetrate the object and scatter back
A sensitive digital detector captures the reflected signal
Software reconstructs a real-time, grayscale image on the handheld display
Operator can assess anomalies and identify concealed threats immediately
Weighs under 6 kg with battery
Ideal for mobile inspection tasks
Easily deployable in urban, rural, or remote areas
140kV power enables imaging through steel, wood, plastic, and fiberglass
Effective for detecting hidden items inside car doors, cargo panels, walls, etc.
High-resolution 16-bit grayscale display
Instant feedback allows faster decision-making in high-pressure environments
Sensitive to low-density materials like drugs, C4, and body-concealed items
Delivers superior results in scanning clothing, upholstery, plastic containers
Visual image of scan target overlaid with X-ray output
Enhances situational awareness and positioning accuracy
Powered by rechargeable battery (3-6 hour runtime)
Enables inspections in areas without power access
Save images locally or export via USB or Wi-Fi
Optional remote monitoring or control from command centers

Material | Detectability |
---|---|
Organic (C4, TNT) | High visibility in backscatter mode |
Metals (gun parts) | Strong contrast and clarity |
Plastic items | Clear visibility against packaging |
Concealed in foam | Detectable due to density differences |
Inside tires/panels | Image penetrates and reveals shape |
Despite its high X-ray power, the device adheres to strict radiation safety protocols:
Built-in shielding minimizes scatter outside scanning zone
Low-dose X-ray output safe when operated correctly
Complies with ANSI, CE, and IEC standards for radiation equipment
Interlock features prevent accidental emission
Operator training modules and dosimeter-compatible
The scanner is safe for field operation, and exposure levels are significantly below occupational safety limits when used according to guidelines.
