GammaRAE II R
The RAE Systems GammaRAE II R is a rapid gamma radiation detector and dosimeter in a single instrument. The GammaRAE II R is designed specifically to meet the needs of national security and emergency responders
List of Benefits
- Combined Detector and Dosimeter
- Intrinsically Safe
- Immersible
- Loud Alarm
- Dose Accumulation
Due to its high sensitivity at low radiation levels, GammaRAE II R can alert users of the presence of a radiation threat well before reaching health-threatening levels. Its high range and dosimeter functionality allow security and emergency responders to track their dose.
GammaR AE II R Kit includes:
- GammaRAE II R personal radiation detector/dosimeter
