FLIR Detection
The FLIR identiFINDER R300 is designed for the survey of objects ranging from small packages to
large objects such as freight containers to search for illicit traf icking of radioactive material, to scan
containers for radiation leaks, to monitor medical waste or scrap metal, you name it. It will detect
and identify radioactive materials. If the type or quantity of radioactive material exceeds pre-set
alarm levels then this information will be provided to you.
In particular, the FLIR identiFINDER R300 will identify threat objects. A threat object is de ined
as radioactive material whose signature is consistent with that of material that could be used for
terrorist purposes. Threat materials are usually those used in a nuclear explosive device or which
could be used in Radiological Dispersive Devices (“Dirty” bombs).
The FLIR identiFINDER R300 incorporates advanced physics algorithms that allow any user to
make highly sophisticated scienti ic measurements. The two button interface and simple menu
structure were designed so that it can be operated with minimal training. The high degree of au-
tomation allows for successful operation even in distracting and hostile environments. The instru-
ment is very robust and stable even in the most demanding conditions and can be operated suc-
cessfully with only a few buttons.
Outstanding features are:
• Large Cadmium Zinc Telluride (CZT) detector for fast and accurate identi ication
• Brilliant color display with 320
×
240 pixels, that is easy to read in all lighting conditions
• Large database capacity for more than half a million spectra or other data
• GPS receiver to log incident locations
• Wired communication via standard USB interface
• Wireless communication via Bluetooth for reachback
• Web interface for monitoring and con iguration of the instrument without additional PC soft-
ware
… and many more. See
