Abstract

Gas analyzers are widely used to detect the presence of concealed explosives and explosive devices. The analyser produces an alarm signal on detecting explosive vapors. Fig. 1 shows the use of the gas analyzer provided with a vortex sampler for detection of an explosive device hidden within an untight object. A whirled air stream creates rarefaction close to the surface and ensures an intense air flow containing explosive vapors to the gas analyzer.
