5 Portuguese airports to upgrade to Morpho trace detectors

AIRPORT operator Vinci/ANA Aeroportos de Portugal has awarded a contract to Morpho Detection's local partner MicroSegur, to supply and service 74 Itemiser 4DX explosives trace detectors that are to be installed at five airports in Portugal.

The new equipment will replace the legacy systems at the airports to meet new European Union regulations on security, reported London's Airport Technology.



Morpho Detection CEO Karen Bomba said: "Growing airport operators like Vinci/ANA Aeroportos de Portugal depend on stability and reliable detection solutions to quickly screen passengers and Morpho is thrilled they have selected Itemiser 4DX".



The detector has been designed to quickly detect and identify trace amounts of explosives on skin, clothing, carried items, bags, vehicles and other surfaces.



This follows similar contracts from Manchester Airports and Denmark's Copenhagen Airport for these enhanced explosives screening systems.
