Overview

The DiscoveRAD is an ultra-compact, rugged, sensitive Radionuclide Identifying Device (RID). It provides superior usability by offering a wider energy range, higher throughput, and better stability in a wearable handheld. For the first time, a 2”x 1” size BGO detector is combined with high precision, high-speed digital electronics in an ergonomic lightweight enclosure. The novel design features a water-tight aluminum housing and is small enough to be worn on a belt.

Law enforcement, customs, and other agencies are using RIDs as part of a national strategy to stop the illicit trafficking of radioactive material. When radiation sources are detected by screening devices such as radiation portal monitors or radiation pagers, RIDs are used to analyse the nature of the radioactive source and determine if it presents a high-level threat.  Radiological emergency personnel, firefighters, and other responders also use RIDs for situational awareness during radiological emergencies. DiscoveRad is a portable RID with an extensive radionuclide library, fully compliant with ANSI standards for the RID category. DiscoveRad can continuously scan and identify radiological threats in real time even in mixed source environments with a high level of confidence. Detects and identifies nuclides in mixed, shielded and heavily masked configurations including Special Nuclear Material.

It's not over, when you're back

All measurements are saved on the instrument (25 GB user storage capacity) and can easily be transferred without special software.
Its multiple interfaces and the built-in web interface allow easy and flexible reach-back operation. The interface also provides for secure remote maintenance and remote operation of the instrument.

Made for the mission

The stabilization of the DiscoveRAD does not require any built-in source of LED. The novel patented stabilization is based on the measurement of the photon noise change and compensates gain shifts and temperature effects immediately and automatically. The main advantages of this new method  are:

  • No internal radioactive stabilization source is “blinding” he instrument.
  • No buggy LED light emitter con compromise the stabilization.
  • Superior stability in every situation.
  • The consistent performance of the DiscoveRAD under all conditions and environments, while maintaining the highest accuracy in the results, reduces false positives and expedites decision making in the field.
