The nukeALERT II 1703GN is the latest generation in radiation
detection for non-technical personnel. In the event of a radiological
emergency, first response team members equipped with a nukeALERT II can
immediately survey a large area for any radiological presence because of a
dramatic improvement in detector sensitivity and response time. The
instrument discreetly detects radiation and alerts the operator through a
vibration or audible alarm. Ease of use, sensitivity and durability under harsh
environmental conditions make nukeALERT II essential for those who work in
emergency services, hazmat, counter-terrorism, border patrol, law enforcement,
military, or medical and industrial applications.
The 1703GN is able to detect the smallest amounts of radioactive
materials usinf both gamma and neutron technologies. Equipped with two
independent scintillation detectors, the unit rapidly alerts the user of any
gamma or neutron radiation above normal levels by giving discreet audible or
vibrating alarms. The advanced neutron detector electronics are sensitive
enough to detect shileded gamma sources that might be undetectable by the
average radiation pager. The instrument employs an algorithm which enables the
user to adjust the settings to minimize false alarms in high background level
environments without compromising the probability of detecting a source. |
