AlphaGUARD-Radon Monitor – Bertin Instruments

Any questions or would you like to order this product? Do not hesitate to contact us

AlphaGUARD is a portable, battery or net-operated radon monitor with high storage capacity. In addition to the radon concentration in air, AlphaGUARD measures and records also simultaneously ambient temperature, relative humidity and atmospheric pressure with integrated sensors.

Thanks to its high sensitivity and long time stable calibration, it is the reference instrument for professional radon monitoring and accurate measurement on site.

The complete product line provides all accessories for radon in air, water, soil, building materials, progeny, thoron and calibration equipment to perform air, water, soil, exhalation measurements. The collected data can be linked to the DataVIEW software, allowing data download and storage as well as professional data analysis and reporting. With AlphaGUARD, bring your Radon Lab everywhere.

Technology

AlphaGUARD incorporates a pulse-counting ionization chamber (alpha spectroscopy).

Based on optimal chamber geometry and intelligent signal evaluation, this radon monitor is suitable for continuous monitoring of radon concentrations between 2 – 2 000 000 Bq/m³.

The DSP (Digital Signal Processing) technology provides highly effective differentiation ability between “real” radon data and all kinds of artefacts.
