Background

One of the busiest container seaports in the region handles thousands of trucks and containers every day. Local customs authorities required a reliable way to screen passing vehicles for undeclared radioactive materials without slowing down gate traffic.

Our Solution

Supersense deployed the CM5007B large-scale portal vehicle radiation monitoring system at the port’s main entry and exit lanes. High-sensitivity detectors continuously scan every passing vehicle and container, while automatic audible and visual alarms alert operators the moment radiation levels exceed the threshold. Vehicle image capture and data storage provide complete records for later review, and remote management allows the port’s central control room to oversee all lanes in real time.

Results

• 24/7 unattended radiation screening of all inbound and outbound vehicles
• Zero interruption to gate traffic flow during operation
• Immediate alarms enabled rapid response to two detection events in the first quarter
• Full historical data records supporting customs audit and review
