The ICS-4000 isotope identifier is an easy to use field-portable gamma ray spectrometer, suitable for a variety of field survey and analysis applications. A sensitive Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) detector, 4000 channel multichannel analyzer and powerful microprocessor are combined to allow sophisticated laboratory-grade analysis in the field. This instrument automatically identifies and classifies 160 radionuclides as Naturally Occuring Radioactive Material (NORM), Medical, Industrial or Special Nuclear Material.
Wide Dynamic Range - Performs identification in background radiation levels as low as 50 R/h and as high as 1 R/h.
CdTe Detector - Offers superior resolution and efficiency. The directional detector
locates the exact source of the radiation, even in elevated background environments.
Dose Rate & Radionuclide ID - One-button operation displays both dose rate
and radionuclide identifications on one screen. Audio and visual indicators provided.
Lightweight and Easy to Use - Weighs less than 2 pounds. This compact
instrument can be operated with heavy gloves. Detachable handle and field case
available.
5 Second Warm-up Time - Provides immediate analysis.
No Field Calibration Required - Self adjusts across temperature range.
Applications include:
Radioactive materials identification in labs, hospitals, landfills and power plants
Hazmat response
Nuclear non-proliferation
Airport security
Environmental sampling
Pollution migration studies
