The FLIR identiFINDER R300 is available in several variants (see
, p.
for detailed spec-
i ications). All variants share almost identical operating procedures and are covered in this
manual. The few places where a feature of a certain variant differs from the main stream are
marked accordingly in the text.
1.4 The FLIR identiFINDER R300
The FLIR identiFINDER R300 instrument, engineered and manufactured by FLIR Detection is a dig-
ital, self-contained battery-powered instrument that provides the power of advanced spectroscopy
in your palm. It is part of the FLIR Detection family of instruments designed to provide critical ca-
pabilities required in a wide range of mission circumstances. Such capabilities include:
• Search for sources of gamma radiation or scan areas contaminated with gamma radionuclides
• Automatic identi ication of radionuclides by analysis of gamma ray spectra
• Gamma dose and dose rate measurements
• Neutron detection with count rate and accumulated counts (Available only for variants
equipped with a neutron detector.)
• Semi-conductor detector for improved resolution and ruggedness
The FLIR identiFINDER R300 combines the capabilities of a Personal Radiation Detector (PRD) with
the radionuclide identi ication capabilities of a Radio-Isotope Identi ication Detector (RIID) into
one conveniently small package. The FLIR identiFINDER R300 utilizes the same reliable advanced
technology that is deployed in the well-known identiFINDER 2 family of instruments. We offer a
family of handheld products to address the various applications operators will encounter while
ensuring operators will be presented with the same screens, information, and operation between
all our devices.
