About this file
This is the TSA Air Cargo Screening Technology List (ACSTL) Version 12.9, released September 30, 2025, serving as the official guide for regulated parties procuring TSA-approved screening devices and associated consumables for air cargo security operations.
The document organizes qualified, approved, and grandfathered screening technologies across six categories: Visual Image (VI) Devices, Explosive Trace Detection (ETD) Devices, Metal Detection (MD) Devices, Explosive Detection Systems (EDS), and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Monitors. Qualified technologies have undergone formal TSA-sponsored testing and are recommended for procurement. Approved technologies are conditionally approved for screening operations while undergoing field-test activities with a maximum 36-month approval period before removal if unsuccessful. Grandfathered technologies remain qualified but have stated expiration dates to allow gradual phase-out. Devices must match exact top assembly part numbers and required software versions to be considered qualified. Visual Image devices are classified by material discrimination capability (yes/no), number of views (single, dual, multi), and capacity (A/small, B/medium, C/large). Metal Detection devices are classified by type (general detection or detection plus localization), commodity class (printed matter through fish/meats), and capacity. The document lists manufacturers including Astrophysics, Gilardoni, Leidos, Rapiscan Systems, Smiths Detection, and others with complete contact information. Appendix A identifies TSA-approved third-party consumables vendors for ETD devices, including DSA Detection, ETD Direct, Microsilver Wear, and US Testing Equipment, with specific part numbers and compatible equipment models for swabs, traps, calibration items, and other consumables.

1 Introduction
1.1 Document Purpose
The Air Cargo Screening Technology List (ACSTL) serves as TSA’s official guide for regulated parties to use when procuring screening devices and associated trace consumables in accordance with TSA approved security programs. Any technology purchased from this list must be utilized in accordance with measures outlined in a screener's Standard Security Program. This list does not apply to devices owned by TSA or devices used in TSA-sponsored tests or test beds. Reference the SSI version of the ACSTL to determine approved and qualified software versions. This information is not contained in the Non-SSI version of the
ACSTL.
1.2 Document Format
The document is arranged by Technology Qualification Group as follows: (1) Visual Image (VI) Devices, formerly referred to as the Non-Computed Tomography (Non-CT) Transmission X-ray Devices, (2) Explosive Trace Detection (ETD) Devices, (3) Metal Detectors (MD), formerly referred to as the Electronic Metal Detection (EMD) Devices, (4) Explosive Detection Systems (EDS), and (5) Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Monitors. Under each Technology Qualification Group are three sections: A Qualified Technology section, an Approved Technology section, and a Grandfathered Technology section. The Qualified Technology section specifies devices, by technology, which have undergone a formal TSA-sponsored test process and are deemed qualified for screening operations. When procuring a device from the ACSTL, regulated parties are encouraged to select a device from the Qualified Technology section. The Approved Technology section specifies devices, by technology, which have been conditionally approved for screening operations and are currently undergoing or are scheduled for field-test activities. These devices have up to 36 months from the date added to the Approved Technology section to successfully pass TSA's suitability based field-test activities. If a device is unable to pass field-test activities within the prescribed 36 months, it will be removed from the Approved Technology section. Due to this fact, regulated parties who procure a device from the Approved Technology section do so at their own risk. Additional technologies may be added to the Approved Technology section at TSA's discretion. The Grandfathered Technology section specifies devices, by technology, which are currently qualified to screen cargo but have a stated expiration date. This allows regulated parties who are using the grandfathered technology an opportunity to gradually phase out the device and transition to devices listed in the Qualified or Approved sections. Due to this fact, regulated parties should not purchase devices from this section; rather, they should reference the Qualified or Approved sections for their procurement needs.
1.3 Disclaimer
The Approved Technology section reflects devices that have successfully passed Stage I of the qualification testing process. TSA reserves the right to remove any device from this section that fails Stage II test activities. The Grandfathered Technology section reflects devices that are currently qualified to screen cargo but have a stated expiration date. TSA also reserves the right to remove
Non-SSI Air Cargo Screening Technology List Version 12.9 Page 6 of 35 September 30, 2025 devices from the Approved or Qualified section or revise an expiration date for Grandfathered devices due to a device’s inability to meet more stringent performance parameters associated with emerging threats. Should such a situation occur, TSA will issue specific guidance on how previously purchased devices may be used.
1.4 Device Configuration
Top Assembly Part Number and Required Software Version indicate the only qualified configurations for each Device Model Number.
Models with different part numbers or software versions are not considered qualified screening devices. Reference the SSI version of the ACSTL to determine approved and qualified software versions. This information is not contained in the Non-SSI version of the ACSTL.
1.5 Operating Environment
Devices listed within the ACSTL are intended to be operated under controlled temperature and humidity conditions. Add-on components and kits may be available from vendors to extend operational temperature and humidity ranges.

2 Visual Image Devices Technology Description: Fixed projection Visual Image inspection devices that display digitized transmission radiographic images of an object under inspection following an interrogation.
Technology Classification: This technology is classified by material discrimination capability, number of views, and capacity.
Material discrimination capability: Classification groups are “Yes (Y)” and “No (N).” “Yes” indicates devices that are capable of enabling visual differentiation between types of materials detected, e.g., nylon vs explosives vs PVS under steel.
“No” indicates devices that do not discriminate between different materials.
Number of views: Classification groups are single view (grandfathered), dual view, and multi view. Devices may display images scanned from one, two, or multiple perspectives. Regardless of a device’s manual or assisted-detection capability, the operator must view and interpret one or more images of each object under inspection as dictated by the applicable security program.
Capacity designation: Device capacity groups are defined in the table below. The capacity listing is for testing and informational purposes only.

Appendix A: Trace Consumables To ensure that Explosive Trace Detection (ETD) units operate at a level of maximum effectiveness in detecting explosives, TSA requires that all consumables purchased for screening air cargo either appear on the Trace Consumables List (TCL) or be supplied by the manufacturer of the ETD device. TSA expresses no preference for manufacturer-supplied consumables or for third-party-supplied consumables.
The TCL identifies third-party ETD consumable items tested by TSA and found to have comparable performance to similar type consumables supplied by the security system manufacturers. Third party consumable items not on the TCL either did not pass the TSA evaluation or were not tested by TSA.
Third-Party Consumables Vendors Contact information for vendors appearing in the TCL is listed below in alphabetical order.
