Radiation Area Monitoring
with Spectroscopic Capabilities

Detectors   Area Monitor
Portal Monitor

PGT offers a full suite of instrumentation and detectors for spectroscopic area monitoring. The expanding line of detector options include arrays of small, distributed detector networks and larger, single point detector systems. Analytical data with complete spectroscopic support is available in realtime to support industrial, security or process monitoring applications.

OEM detector modules, leveraging NaI and LaBr for gamma and 3He for neutron detection, give end users a customizable, spectroscopic radiation detection component to include in existing sensor networks or area monitoring applications.

SAM Defender with Reachback Program

SAM Defender

The portable SAM Defender, a new nuclear radiation isotope identifier, gives users what they need – simple operation for the first responder who needs to react quickly, as well as detailed analyses for the sophisticated technical user. Several modes of operation, a variety of detector options, and features like GPS positioning, intuitive menu and color display, and a rugged IP65 enclosure design set a new bar for portable rad/nuke identification.

NEW SAHARA III - a new Peltier-cooled Silicon Drift Detector which offers users an active detector area of 100 mm2.
