H Series
The H series uses pixelated CZT technology to identify, quantify and localize gamma-ray sources. Its energy range covers isotopes of interest up to 1.5 MeV. Precision overlay of gamma-ray and optical images are standard and it can discriminate between background and sources of interest in less than 1 minute. Detection of radiation produces a variety of images at the operator’s command: Spectrum, gamma image, optical image, or a composite image. The H Series is lightweight, portable, and air/water tight for easy decontamination.
