The nukeALERT 951 is the essential radiation
detector to disclose the presence and intensity level of gamma radiation for
nontechnical personnel. It’s small, rugged, watertight and more sensitive than
commonly used first responder radiation meters. Enhanced sensitivity is
especially important when one is dealing with concealed radioactive material,
where the radiation levels may vary based on distance and shielding.
The nukeALERT 951 discreetly detects gamma radiation with either a vibration or
audible alarm. The unit has a 2-year battery life and automatically recalibrates
in high background environments. The belt clip and bright visual display
promotes hands-free operation for the end user. The rugged micro-sized package
provides a watertight, robust monitoring tool for HAZMAT and emergency response
teams.
In the event of a radiological emergency, team members equipped with the
nukeALERT 951 can quickly and cost effectively monitor a large area because of a
dramatic improvement in detector sensitivity and response time. Ease of use,
sensitivity and operability under harsh environmental conditions make the
nukeALERT 951 ideal for responders who work in emergency services, hazardous
materials, and counter-terrorism.
