Rad-ID Series
The Rad-ID is a handheld detector capable of identifying and classifying radiological hazards as isotope, dose rate, and location. Medical, Industrial and Special Nuclear Materials (SNM) isotopes of significance are all included in the radiation library. Designed to be rugged and easy to operate, the Rad-ID can provide isotope identification for non-technical users and extensive analysis for highly trained personnel within minutes. An IrDA and a BlueTooth® wireless interface allows uploading of data via email / internet. The four models available:
Rad-ID G: NaI(Tl), Geiger-Mueller, 4 CZT crystals
Rad-ID G-Plus: NaI(Tl), Geiger-Mueller, 8 CZT crystals
Rad-ID GN: NaI(Tl), Geiger-Mueller, Neutron, 4 CZT crystals
Rad-ID GN-Plus: NaI(Tl), Geiger-Mueller, Neutron, 8 CZT crystals
Availability: Commercially Available
