Children coming out of the security instrument will be affected by the radiation of the security instrument, which will have a certain impact on their health.

Security inspection machine belongs to the main baggage security inspection equipment in subway and airport. The principle is simple, that is, using the ability of X-rays to penetrate matter. Different densities, thicknesses and compositions have different X-ray penetration abilities. X-ray machines identify objects in luggage according to their different penetrating abilities to various substances.

The X-ray power emitted by baggage security inspection machine is very low, and the radiation dose received is less than 5 microsieverts, which is far lower than the radiation dose used for irradiation sterilization and food preservation. Many foods we eat are actually irradiated, and so are other countries.

Extended data:

The introduction of the security inspection machine is as follows:

Organic materials, such as paper, clothes and various foods, usually show orange. Mixed materials and light metals, such as those containing sodium, silicon and aluminum, are usually shown in green.
