Colibri
The Colibri is a hand-held dose rate and survey meter that can be used with multiple probes. The Colibri also allows for wireless data collection from pre-positioned detectors that can be placed in radiation areas eliminating the need to attach probes, get close to the source, then manually transcribe data. The TTC model measures up to 10 Sv/h and the VLD model starts at 10 nSv/h.
