OPerATIONAL TesT PIeCe
Actual forbidden objects should be used as targets for initial calibration. Once the detector
settings are established it is recommended that a Test Piece be selected which is similar in
size, shape and metallic composition to the smallest forbidden object. This Test Piece can
be used to generally verify operation on a regular basis without the necessity of having
actual weapons on-hand at the screening station.
Garrett offers an optional Operational Test Piece (OTP) that meets the specifications of the
U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and is a representation of a small handgun.
Garrett also offers an optional Flat Test Piece (FTP) which represents a small knife (see
Section 8.8.) You may want to consider other test pieces if your screening operation requires
detection of objects other than guns and / or knives.
