EMIS®-MAIL
Mail scanner for the detection of letter bombs and IEDs in small parcels
The EMIS®-MAIL is designed to detect a wide variety of metal threat items including detonators, batteries, trigger circuits and other metal components of parcel bombs without false alarms for non-threat items such as metal staples, paper clips and metal binding spirals.
SMD®600 Plus-MI2™
Multi-sensor walk-through detector
Combined Ferromagnetic and active Metal Detector, the SMD®600 Plus – MI2™ is optimized for the screening of people in applications where simultaneous detection of all metal (magnetic and non-magnetic) firearms and cellphone/smartphone devices, including the most miniaturized, low metal content versions, is required along with high-throughput and a low nuisance alarm rate.
MSD™
Highly portable cell phone, ferrous weapon and contraband detector
The illegal use of cell phones is a growing and dangerous problem in correctional institutions worldwide. The MSD™ was specifically designed to detect all cell phones and ferrous contraband concealed on the person or in body cavities (including key fob cell phones, smart phones, radio transceivers, etc.) quickly and easily. The one-piece design allows the MSD™ to be easily transported and operational in 10 seconds.
HI-PE Plus
Enhanced walk-through multi-zone metal detector
The HI-PE Plus Multi-Zone Metal Detector provides accurate detection of all metals, high level of discrimination of non-threat items, full compliance with the latest Security Standards and exceptional immunity to external interferences. The HI-PE Plus has a very low nuisance alarm rate even at the strictest Security Levels requested today, and therefore allows high transit flow rates and the minimum need for intervention by inspection personnel.
Frequently Asked Questions About CEIA
What is CEIA USA known for?
CEIA USA is known for high-precision metal detectors and electromagnetic inspection systems used for security screening, weapons detection, and mail or parcel inspection in government, transportation, education, and public venue environments.
Where are CEIA detection systems commonly deployed?
CEIA systems are commonly deployed in airports, stadiums, arenas, courthouses, schools, universities, correctional facilities, VIP events, and other locations that require high-performance entry or parcel screening.
What is the difference between a walk-through metal detector and a hand-held detector?
Walk-through metal detectors are used for primary screening at entry points, while hand-held detectors are often used for secondary screening to pinpoint metallic objects on a person after an alarm or targeted check.
Are CEIA systems suitable for high-throughput public screening environments?
Yes. CEIA systems are designed for environments that require both strong detection performance and fast flow rates, such as airports, event venues, and government buildings with heavy daily traffic.
Can CEIA systems be used outdoors or for temporary event security?
Some CEIA solutions, including OPENGATE, are designed for flexible deployment and can be used in indoor or outdoor operations depending on the system and setup requirements.
How do CEIA metal detectors reduce false alarms in high-traffic environments?
CEIA systems are designed with advanced detection algorithms and discrimination capabilities to focus on specific threat items while minimizing alarms from common personal items, helping maintain throughput and efficiency.
Can CEIA systems be integrated with other security technologies?
Yes. CEIA detection systems can be part of a layered security approach and may be deployed alongside access control, surveillance, and screening workflows to improve overall facility security.
What factors should be considered when selecting a CEIA screening solution?
Key considerations include throughput requirements, threat profile, environment (indoor or outdoor), need for bag screening or no-divestment workflows, and whether primary or secondary screening is required.
What is the CEIA OPENGATE weapons detection system used for?
OPENGATE is designed for high-throughput weapons screening of people carrying backpacks, purses, and bags, helping security teams detect metal threats while reducing nuisance alarms and minimizing the need for divesting.
