RAID-AFM (NC-Version)

Automated Facility Monitor for Nuclear and Chemical Detection

RAID-AFM The RAID-AFM (NC Version) meets the challenging requirements for the protection of Critical Infrastructure. Designed to be used in a stationary role it provides long term monitoring of chemical agents threats (chemical warfare agents, CWA as well as toxic industrial chemicals, TIC and nuclear radiation.

Special features

  • Non radioactive XPI™ Photo Ionization source, no special user licenses required
  • Embedded web-interface for unlimited interrogation of sensors worldwide, no additional software required
  • Integrated doserate meter for measuring of gamma radiation (optional)
  • Excellent interference rejection through dopant technology
  • Automatic overload control protects the sensor by switching the gas flow from air sampling to back flushing and back to operation
  • Concurrent detection of chemical agent threats, toxic industrial chemicals and nuclear radiation by high-speed reversible voltage source
  • High performance ion mobility spectrometer tube characterized by excellent analytical reproducibility
  • Sophisticated internal data analysis with substance identification capability

Applications

  • Early warning tool for civil and industrial applications
  • Long term monitoring of ambient air of areas and facilities for the presence of hazardous compounds and nuclear radiation
  • Integration into air-conditioning and fire safety systems
  • Control of working place pollutants
  • Either operation as stand-alone instrument or networked

Remote webserver monitoring

  • Visualization of instrument status
  • Control of instrument operation
  • Instrument configuration setting
  • Recordable event reader
  • Enabled to run on any PC, laptop or pocket computer with web-browser
