Real-time environmental monitoring solution
iCAM continuous air monitor

The intelligent Alpha/Beta Continuous Air Monitor (iCAM)
provides robust and reliable real-time monitoring of airborne
particulate activity in the workplace. iCAM uses an ion-implanted
silicon radiation detector. It acts as a simple alarming monitor for
operators with the sophistication required to provide low false
alarm rates and high protection levels.
Performance
•• Continuous total airflow recording and reporting.
•• User-set alarms with local and remote reporting.
•• One-week data storage with detailed event log.
•• Thirty minute protection of full functionality by built-in battery
backup without external pump.
•• Optional remote gamma probe.
Key benefits
•• Auto-adaptive spectrometric compensation for natural radon/
thoron progeny background, yielding lowest false alarm rate in
the field.
•• Rugged steel enclosure which provides IP54 environmental
protection.
•• Stable long-term low level measurements.

EcoGamma™-g Radiation Monitor

CANBERRA’s EcoGamma-g is an advanced, dual detector, EcoGamma g
environmental gamma radiation monitor designed to operate in
the most extreme conditions with unsurpassed accuracy, range
and stability.
Key benefits
•• Environmentally robust housing provides stable, reliable
performance in demanding operating environments.
•• Built-in temperature monitoring provides supplemental
meteorological information and aids.
•• Total Integrated Dose (TID).
•• CANBERRA’s unique “Time-To-Count” technique eliminates
dead time and saturation effects of conventional GM detectors.
