Frequently Asked Questions

AutoClear 6040DVS FAQs

Find answers to the questions we get most often.
What items can the AutoClear 6040DVS screen?

The AutoClear 6040DVS screens small to mid-sized items, including backpacks, briefcases, purses, parcels, strollers, and mailbags. It is designed to detect weapons, explosives, drugs, and other prohibited items.

Where is the AutoClear 6040DVS commonly used?

The 6040DVS is used at airports, government buildings, corporate offices, critical infrastructure sites, mail screening facilities, and other security checkpoints where reliable X-ray screening is essential.

Can the AutoClear 6040DVS fit in tight spaces?

Yes. Its compact dimensions allow it to pass through standard doorways and integrate into existing checkpoint layouts with minimal disruption.

Can the AutoClear 6040DVS operate continuously?

Yes. The system is built for continuous operation with a 100% duty cycle, so it delivers consistent performance without requiring cool-down periods.

Can the AutoClear 6040DVS reduce checkpoint delays?

It can. Much of the slowdown at busy checkpoints comes from bags jamming or drifting off-track, forcing operators to stop and reset. The 6040DVS tackles that with a patented autoTracking guided conveyor that keeps itself aligned as bags move through.

What imaging tools are included with the AutoClear 6040DVS?

There’s autoSoft and RealClear for cleaner, sharper images, 128x Smart Zoom for scrutinizing fine detail, and Organic/Inorganic differentiation to distinguish material types. autoImage recall lets operators pull up previous scans when something warrants a second look, while Real-Time Diagnostics keeps tabs on the machine itself.

Does the AutoClear 6040DVS meet X-ray safety standards?

Yes. The 6040DVS complies with US FDA 21 CFR 1020.40 requirements for cabinet X-ray systems and is designed to operate within established radiation safety limits.
