Inspector X Probe Portal Edition

Description

Monitoring for radioactive materials at shipping stations, points of entry, hospitals and sensitive locations has become increasingly important. The widening use of radioactive materials in medicine, science and industry creates risks related to health, safety and security. The Inspector X Probe Portal Edition was created to mitigate and manage those risks by providing a convenient and easy to use radiation monitoring solution. The instrument can be mounted on a wall with the provided hardware. A magnetic cradle keeps the sensor secure but easy to remove and use for scanning packages, clothes, shoes, hands and a variety of surfaces. The entire instrument can be removed from the wall quickly and easily for triage, decontamination and field use.

Whether for preventing the smuggling of nuclear materials or for protecting personnel from accidental exposure to radiation from a variety of sources, this instrument can be a cost effective component of any safety and security program. The financial cost of clean up of mishaps with nuclear materials can be incredibly expensive if breaches are not prevented. The alert feature on the Inspector X Probe will provide an audible signal when the user adjustable radiation threshold has been exceeded.
