Reveal Imaging Technologies, Inc., a developer of advanced security inspection systems, announced today that the Reveal CT-80 Explosive Detection System (EDS) is certified as an approved product for Homeland Security under the Support Anti-Terrorism by Fostering Effective Technologies Act of 2002 (the SAFETY Act). The Reveal CT-80 is deployed at U.S. and international airports to meet the TSA standard to automatically inspect 100% of checked baggage for explosives.

The aim of the SAFETY Act is to encourage the development and deployment of anti-terrorism technologies that will substantially enhance the protection of the nation by limiting the liability of effective technologies aimed at preventing, detecting, or deterring acts of terrorism. Specifically, the Act creates certain liability limitations for “claims arising out of, relating to, or resulting from an act of terrorism” where qualified anti-terrorism technologies have been deployed.

The extremely rigorous and comprehensive process for obtaining SAFETY Act certification is conducted by a panel of experts employed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). DHS determined that the CT-80 satisfies the criteria set forth in the SAFETY Act’s regulations after completing a thorough analysis and review.

“Obtaining SAFETY Act coverage underscores the importance of the CT-80 in the United States Government's war on terrorism.” said Michael Ellenbogen, president and CEO of Reveal Imaging Technologies. “The Department of Homeland Security was very thorough and helpful in working with Reveal to ensure a complete understanding of the SAFETY Act requirements.”

About Reveal Imaging Technologies, Inc. In October 2005 Reveal received a $24.8 million TSA order for its CT-80 automated Explosives Detection Systems (EDS) for airport checked baggage as part of a three-year IDIQ (Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity) contract.

Reveal is also developing explosives detection solutions under two other TSA programs:

a $3.6 million research and development contract under Project Cambria, TSA’s Advanced Weapons and Explosives Detection System development program,

and a $2.5 million research and development contract under TSA’s EDS Break Bulk Cargo Optimization Program.

Headquartered in Bedford, MA, privately held Reveal Imaging Technologies, Inc., is one of only three companies to successfully pass the TSA’s certification process for automated explosive detection systems (EDS). The certified Reveal CT-80 is the smallest, lightest and least expensive EDS system in production.
