The only detector with a NaI/Tl scintillation crystal with a capacity of 104 cm3 weighing less than 3 kg. Its housing is made of aluminum alloy coated with a polyurethane layer. This protects the device from wear and tear and allows for easy decontamination. The presence of radioactive substances is indicated on a graphic display, and by a piezoacoustic transducer generating alarm signals. Dust and water resistant. Easy one-button operation. Low power consumption and long battery life. Rechargeable AA batteries can be used. The charger is integrated in the device. An AC adaptor is supplied for charging/powering from the mains, and the unit may be powered from a 12V car socket.
The RT-21 series is also available with a telescopic arm. At a customer’s request, an RT-21B model is available fitted with a BGO detector instead of a NaI-Tl detector.
