RadEye NBR High Sensitivity Gamma Radiation Monitor

Portable high-sensitivity gamma detection system with Natural Background Rejection (NBR), which distinguishes artificial from natural radiation when searching for shielded or remote sources.

The system combines the compact RadEye SX meter with the FHZ 674 NBR detector. Even when the incremental dose rate is only in the order of 0.01 µSv/h, it gives unambiguous audible and visual alarm indication within seconds. The dose rate range is limited to 100 µSv/h; for higher dose rates an additional gamma survey meter such as the RadEye G-10 is recommended.

  • Alarms on small traces of artificial gamma radiation, even with large variations in natural background
  • Ideal for detection of shielded or remote sources
  • 0 to 200 % bar graph shows the possible presence of artificial radiation during search (100 % = NBR alarm set point)
  • Distinct audible indication for artificial radiation, separate from gross gamma alarms
  • Weighs approx. 3 kg, one hand operation
