Bremesgraf Body Scanner: X-ray body scanning solution for contraband detection
BBS-72 is an X-ray body scanning system for the detection of weapons, drugs, cell phones and other contraband in seconds. It helps create safer environments for people who live or work inside correctional facilities and other high security venues.
Patented technology, compact size, ease of operation, training and service, and data management features make BBS-72 the X-ray scanning system of choice for law enforcement, corrections and security professionals.
Feature highlights
- Fast detection. Detects metallic and non-metallic threats concealed under clothing and within body cavities in 3.8 seconds.
- Scientifically proven safe. Operates with ultra-low amounts of radiation, as low as 1% of the dose used in medical X-ray exams, and meets the ANSI N43.17 standard for body scanner radiation safety.
- Clear, distortion-free images. Scans through the body horizontally, the shortest path, with a mobile beam that starts below the feet and moves vertically above the head.
- Smallest footprint. A 3 by 6 foot footprint and exclusion zone; ships nearly fully assembled, rolls through standard door frames and installs in under two hours with a single technician.
- Certified training and 24/7 service. On-site training by AART-certified radiology professionals, online simulator training, a 24/7 service hotline and expert witness support.

- X-ray dose less than 1% of a medical exam
- Three scan filters at 8 µSv: high resolution, three-dimensional and detail
- Subjects stand still during scans; no moving platform
- Smart technology notifies the operator when a subject is out of position
- Photo ID link for evidentiary support
- Secure database for subject information, scanning records and up to 100 million images; documents annual radiation exposure per subject in compliance with ANSI N43.17
