American Science and Engineering, Inc. Receives $7.3 Million U.S. Government Order for Multiple ZBV X-ray Screening Systems

American Science and Engineering, Inc. (AS&E®) (NASDAQ:ASEI), a leader in X-ray detection technology, announced today the receipt of a $7.3 million order from the U.S. government for multiple Z Backscatter™ Van (ZBV™) X-ray screening systems — the industry’s top-selling mobile X-ray screening system.

“The ZBV is a powerful tool for the detection of drugs, explosives, contraband, and stowaways,” said Anthony Fabiano, President and CEO. “Officials from customs and military organizations have recounted outstanding field performance reports. Developed with our customers in mind, the ZBV continues to meet and exceed stringent U.S. government and international requirements for performance and detection.”

AS&E’s Z Backscatter Van (ZBV)

A breakthrough in X-ray detection technology, AS&E’s Z Backscatter Van is the number one selling non-intrusive mobile inspection system on the market. ZBV is a low-cost, highly mobile screening system built into a commercially available delivery van. The ZBV allows for immediate deployment in response to security threats and its high throughput capability facilitates rapid inspection. The system’s unique “drive-by” capability allows operators to conduct X-ray imaging while the ZBV drives past suspect vehicles and objects. For personnel safety in dangerous environments, a remote console is available for operating the system in stationary mode from a distance of up to 500 meters.
