Product Overview
- A high-sensitivity plastic detector can quickly locate and detect radioactive sources.
- Simple management of nuisance alarms by instantaneous differentiation using the Natural Background Rejection algorithm (NBR) between artificial and natural radiation (NORM, natural background changes).
- Constantly at maximum sensitivity to automatic background variation adjustment
- He-3 free detector technology allows for high-sensitivity neutron detection.
- Gamma-only version available
- Simple LED level, alarm, and status indications with NBR feedback (red and green) and an intuitive user interface.
- Stealth mode with a standard earbud mute, level indicator, and alarm.
- Lightweight at 7.5 kg
- Thirty hours of operation with low power consumption (20 hours with Bluetooth™ data transfer to an optional PDA)
- Connectable to the Thermo Scientific™ ViewPoint™ Enterprise platform, enabling a programmable remote monitoring system that delivers real-time command and control information
The Backpack Includes
- 2ea. flat Li-6 scintillation detectors, each with a very low net alarm threshold level and a proprietary measurement method that minimizes crosstalk.
- NBR plastic scintillation detector with voltage divider and photomultiplier that is incredibly sensitive
- This is a low-power controller (type FHT 681) with an attached high-capacity battery module and a user-friendly interface (LED-based indicator unit).
- An accessory case with connection cables to a PC or notebook features a spare battery pack, earphones, international power socket plugs for charging, a car adapter that can be used as a backup power source for the battery charger, and a rain cover.
Recommended Accessories
- Spectroscopic Personal Radiation Detector (SPRD) for flexible source location, dose rate survey, and nuclide identification in case of alarm: Thermo Scientific™ RadEye™ SPRD with belt holster.
- PDA Set with GPS for easy data viewing (paired via Bluetooth with the PackEye Backpack)
- Transportation case with external power outlet
- Tripod for transportation case allowing the PackEye Backpack to be used as transportable, temporarily stationary Gamma and Neutron monitor
