The AreaRAE Gamma
is a combination multi-gas and
radiation detector equipped with a
wireless, RF (radio-frequency)modem
that allows the unit to communicate
and transmit sensor and other
information on a real-time basis
with a remotely located base
controller.
In the stand
alone operation, the AreaRAE Gamma
is a rugged, weather-resistant,
one-to-five sensor portable monitor
that can run up to 24 hours on
either rechargeable Lithium-ion or
optional alkaline batteries. It is
also the first “lunchbox”- type
multi-sensor instrument able to
include a gamma sensor for
measurement of gamma radiation, a
photoionization detector (PID) for
parts-per-million measurement of
volatile organic compounds (VOCs),
as well as an LEL combustible gas
sensor, oxygen sensor, and a
selectable electrochemical toxic
sensor.
The RF modem
allows real-time data transmissions
with a base controller located up to
two miles (3.2 km) away from the
AreaRAE Gamma detector. A personal
computer can be used as the base
station. The standard ProRAE Remote
software used to control AreaRAE
Gamma systems is capable of
monitoring the input of up to 32
remotely located monitors.
