ASTM F 1468 REV A Document Information:
Title
Standard Practice for Evaluation of Metallic Weapons Detectors for Controlled Access Search and Screening
ASTM International
Publication Date:
May 1, 2004
Scope:
This practice covers methods for the evaluation of walk-through metal
weapons detectors and
criteria for testing metal detection performance.
This practice specifies certain health, safety, and human factors
criteria pertaining to the usage
of the detection equipment.
This practice requires the use of non-standardized (user-supplied)
test objects and test equipment.
Evaluations made using the procedures outlined in this practice can be
used for comparative
evaluations only if the tests are made with the same equipment and
test objects.
This practice is intended for use by manufacturers and evaluators of
electromagnetic field devices
used for screening persons entering into controlled access areas. It
is not intended to set
performance nor limit or constrain operating technologies, nor is it a
document for use by
individual operators or users of such equipment at specific access
control points.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.
Other units given in parentheses
are for information only.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use. For a
specific hazards statement, see warning note in 12.2.5.
