AERIS

Portable gamma spectrometer for on-site air filter analysis

Rugged portable gamma spectrometer that analyses radioactive contamination on air filters and cartridges right where they are collected, in fixed or mobile set-ups. A shielded NaI(Tl) detector with SiPM identifies radionuclides and quantifies activity without sending samples to a laboratory; pre-loaded efficiency curves and a guided start let non-specialists measure correctly.
