RadEye™ PRD Series
The RadEye™ PRD4 and PRD-ER4 are handheld personal radiation detectors with neutron radiation alerts, a linear high dose rate with a variety of accessory kits. They use Natural Background Rejection (NBR) Technology, and ignore fluctuations in naturally occurring radiation (NORM) while analyzing the energy imbalance of artificial radiation. The ER4 model includes a high dose rate.
