Technical Proof Concept Achieved for Safe Passage System’s Mobile Trace Detection Equipment

San Diego, CA, May 22, 2006 – Safe Passage System announced today the successful mobile deployment of a GE EntryScan3 unit. The EntryScan3 was originally design for permanent placement and was successfully retrofitted by Safe passage Systems in a laboratory quality mobile unit. The EntryScan3 maintained power, calibration, and temperature balance over highway and road travel. The proof of concept ensures the mobile ion scan continues to detect narcotics and explosives while housed as a mobile solution.
