Quantum Sniffer Technology
The Quantum Sniffer QS-H150 employs a patented vortex collector for the simultaneous detection of explosives particulates and vapors with or without physical contact and in real-time. Extremely sensitive, the advanced Quantum Sniffer can detect parts-per-brillion (ppb) levels of explosives vapor and nanogram quantities of explosives particulates for most threat substances.Accurate and Efficient
The QS-H150 has automatic and continuous self-calibration. It monitors its environment, senses changes that would affect its accuracy, and re-calibrates accordingly. No user intervention, no calibration consumables, no system down-time.

For detection, the sample is collected by the vortex, ionized photonically, and analyzed via ion mobility spectrometry (IMS). The presence of a threat is indicated by a visible and audible alarm, and the substance is identified and displayed on the integrated LCD screen. Optionally, and at any time, a monitor and keyboard may be connected for convenient access to spectrogram display and analysis tools, administrative tools, and diagnostics.

When detecting a threat substance, the QS-H150 rapidly alarms. This real-time detection limits equipment contamination and allows for ultra-fast clear-down.
