L3’s ClearScan Checkpoint Explosives Detection Systems Deployed by Amsterdam Airport Schiphol
L3 Security & Detection Systems (L3 SDS) announced March 16, that Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS) has deployed two of its new ClearScan checkpoint explosives detection systems (EDS) for cabin baggage screening. L3’s ClearScan systems are designed to meet new European Union (EU) C2 and C3 checkpoint EDS standards. Schiphol has deployed the ClearScan systems alongside ProVision 2 security scanners in its newly implemented streamlined checkpoint to achieve the highest levels of security with a superior passenger experience, where laptops and electronics remain in the bag along with liquids.
“We are very pleased to be an industry leader in the deployment of robust, efficient and passenger-friendly checkpoint solutions,” said Tom Ripp, president of L3 Security & Detection Systems. “L3’s ClearScan EDS is part of a comprehensive security solution that also includes the market-leading ProVision security scanner and a fully integrated automated tray return system. This new solutions-based approach represents the first step toward our vision of replacing isolated checkpoint equipment with an integrated checkpoint solution, fusing sensors and their critical data to drive new levels of efficiency, performance and security.”
