You can. Gamma-Scout® meets the European CE standard as well as the American FCC standard and does not cause interference. The X-ray machine at airport security will not damage the Gamma-Scout®.
This depends on the type of radiation (isotype), the intensity of the source and its barrier (shielding). A discrete object emitting substantial radiation can be detected at up to 10 meters. Also, we have found […]
The Gamma-Scout® will measure from below ambient radiation level to 1,000 uSv/hr, or 100 mrems/hr. Gamma-Scout® measures changes in radiation levels that would go virtually undetected with older civil defense type devices, and it has […]
Very. The Gamma-Scout® was developed to the shock standard for wireless handheld devices. Its Novodur® housing is 30% thicker than that of conventional devices. The housing will not crack, peel, split or shatter even under […]
