The P 7500 has scan speeds of up to 5 mph and throughput of as many as 150 units per hour

SAIC introduces VACIS P 7500

Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) has launched the VACIS P 7500 compact cargo inspection system. The compact, high-penetration portal is designed to scan up to 150 cargo containers per hour. The P 7500 combines small footprint with high throughput, utilizing SAIC's own drive-through technology. The system is suited for high-volume ports and transportation facilities that require high-throughput inspections of dense cargo.

The P 7500 comprises a low-dose compact 7.5MeV accelerator working in conjunction with a high-efficiency detector array to produce high-resolution and high-contrast images. The low-radiation dose produced by the source requires less shielding and a smaller radiation-restricted zone than conventional X-ray systems.
