Product News for detecting radiation

LAURUS Systems Inc.
mini Rad-D Personal Radiation Detector (PRD)

The mini rad-D is a rugged, all-weather radiation detector that's small enough to wear on a belt yet powerful enough to quickly locate low- level radioactive sources. The mini rad-D can be set to notify the user by vibration or audible alarm whenever radiation exceeds natural background levels. A single switch puts it into audible alarm mode, vibrate alarm mode, or turns it off. (read more)
