For Gamma and X-Ray Monitoring
Internal and External Probe Options Available
The Radiation Alert® Area Monitor is user-friendly, versatile, small, and lightweight. GM and Scintillation detector configurations are available. The user interface is an intelligent, resistive, touch-screen display, featuring a large five digit LED readout. The area monitor interfaces with either an internal or external detector; software is included in the price. User-selectable warning indicators alarm at low and high radiation alarm levels, low battery, and detector failure. NIST calibration certificates and Certificates of Conformance are available upon request.
Detector Options
- Internally Mounted Energy Compensated GM Detector
- Externally Mounted Energy Compensated GM Detector
- 1X1 or 2X2 Externally Mounted Scintillation Detector
The Radiation Alert® Area Montior features free software. The base unit interfaces with your PC via USB and/or Ethernet. The software displays a histogram, performs datalogging, and allows the user to save data on a database file. Other features include live reporting, mapping, and remote alarm condition monitoring. Track exposure, program custom alarms and conditions, and set email and/or text alerts. Secondary remote alarm and strobe option can be mounted up to 100 feet from the base controller unit. The area monitor can be connected to the internet. Alarms can be sent to you via email and SMS texting.
