ADE 651 - technical data

Detection Method:
Electro-Magnetic Attraction [ATSC refer to as: EMA]
Sensitivity:
Below Trace level. [Fingerprint] (In the Picogram range.)
Selectivity:
< 2% typical false positive rate (this is mainly due to the inability to visibly see or trace-detector sampling, unable to analyze.)
Detection/Reaction Time:
Less than 30 Seconds
Setup Time:
Less than 1 minute
Environmental:
Operating temperature -40°C to +60°C (-40°F to +140°F) [extreem temperatures tested in refrigerated and oven-type environments]
Power:
electrostatic (500* Volts minimum, with a typical 2500~3000* Volts)
Signal Processing:
Attraction input to moving directional antenna
Detection at 90° across Operator’s body
Calibration:
Not normally required. Operator tests equipment prior to use by detecting a sample substance.
Regular normal cleaning highly recommended.
Detection Modes:
Electrostatically charged Passive receiver
Substance Detection:
  • High Explosives or Detonable Explosives
  • Trinitrotoluene (TNT), DNT
  • Nitro Esters (PETN, nitroglycerine, ethylene glycol dinitrate)
  • Ammonium nitrate
  • Dynamite
  • RDX/Hexogen/Octogan
  • Black Powder, Ammunition & Propellants
  • Tetryl
  • Narcotics
  • Cocaine/Heroin/Morphine
  • THC/Marijuana/Cannabis

Additional substances available.
Contact ATSC for further information.
Sensor Cards:
Sensor Cards are of Credit-card size and are fused so as to warranty against defects and contamination issues. ATSC offer a MATW of 10 years. Multilanguage can be printed to indicate substance type to be detected (subject to order and avalability).
Warranty:
  • 2 year limited warranty on hardware only.
  • 1 year electronic media support (email)
Training Courses
Basic operator training course (required) in the use of the equipment and additional course training in Maritime or Aviation use is available. Search and Rescue for Humans course using the ADE is available. Contact ATSC for further information.
Detection Range
(in tests)
  • Ground level: 200 to 1000**+ meters (tests carried out in desert conditions with clear line-of-sight)
  • From Aircraft: Up to 5000** meters (3+ miles)
  • Under Water: Up to 10** meters (30+ feet)
  • Underground: Up to 10** meters (30+ feet)
NOTES:
* Readings taken by Static-Electrometer to ensure proper power levels.
** All of the above are indications in ideal conditions. Aspects relating to weather such as high temperatures, high humidity and extreme cold, will affect results shown above. Independant tests should be carried out by potential clients to confirm their own needs & requirements for the ADE's use.
