Fast on-site trace detection

Anyone who wants to detect traces and minute concentrations of explosives or narcotics directly on site likes to use a colourimetric detector. While the predecessor model SEEKERe was the first to succeed in automating this common procedure, it has now been optimised with the new SEEKER Pro. The enhanced wipe cards detect several substance groups in a single work step and optimise sampling. Improved cameras for observing and analysing the colour change achieve more precise results. Chlorates, perchlorates and liquid and moist samples can now also be analysed.

Handling is simple: a very small amount of sample is taken with the wipe card, inserted into the SEEKER Pro and analysed directly in the device. Colour matching, which is often difficult for the human eye, and the dangerous handling of chemicals are no longer necessary. The result and classification of the substance group are displayed after a maximum of 40 seconds. This allows emergency services to assess the hazard potential safely, quickly and reliably.

Suitable for every operation

The SEEKER Pro is extremely rugged and durable. It weighs only about 400g and can be easily taken to any application. Results are displayed on the device's screen and can be transferred to an Android or Apple web-enabled device. A report can be quickly shared via this 'smart device'. Alternatively, it can be stored on the SEEKER Pro, printed later, saved to a USB stick or sent via WiFi. In addition, the SEEKER Pro's camera can be used to photograph the substance found and the image can be attached to the incident report.
