Thermo Scientific RadHalo Area Monitor Series
2 Proprietary & Confidential
RadHalo Overview– Born from nuclear accident management
• Customer Problems:
• Need to measure and identify radiation remotely and
automatically while generating dose rate reports
• Personnel costs and ALARA risks are high to secure an area
• Need to operate in normal conditions and extreme emergency
conditions (Fukushima) where site power and communications
are unavailable.
• RadHalo value:
• “Circle of Protection” Fixed or Portable Radiation monitor
capable of automatically identifying and reporting radiation
levels in a finite area
• Capable of operating autonomously for power and
communications.
• Rugged Design allows for transport and use in nearly any
condition
