The Sarad RTM 2200 is a specialized instrument designed for the detection and measurement of radon and thoron gas concentrations in soil. This monitor is crucial for environmental studies, geological research, construction site assessments,agricultural studies, and safety assessments.

1. Detection Principle:

  • The RTM 2200 uses ionization chambers or semiconductor detectors to measure radon and thoron gas levels. These gases emit alpha particles as they decay, which are detected by the sensor.

2. Soil Gas Sampling:

  • Soil gas is collected using probes inserted into the ground. The gas is then drawn into the monitor through a sampling system, which typically includes pumps or passive diffusion methods.

3. Signal Processing:

  • The monitor processes the detected alpha particles' signals, distinguishing between radon and thoron. Advanced algorithms ensure accurate differentiation and quantification of these gases.

Features: 

  • High Sensitivity and Accuracy: Advanced detection technology ensures precise measurements.
  • Robust Design: Built to withstand harsh field conditions.
  • Data Logging and Analysis: Extensive data logging capabilities with options for data transfer and analysis.
  • Portable: Lightweight and easy to transport, making it ideal for fieldwork

SARAD

SARAD was founded in 1993. The company started as service provider assessing radioactive polluted properties with regard to their later decontamination. After a short time, the company started to develop electronic measuring instruments. In 1994, SARAD launched their first radon monitor. Since 1997, the development and manufacturing of premium measuring equipment have become the pillars the company is built on. Due to its positive business performance, the company was able to move into its own corporate building in 2000. Step by step the range of products has been extended over the following years.
