Suitable for all Contamination and Radiation Detection

The Radhound radiation monitor is a multi-purpose digital radiation survey meter suitable for all your contamination monitoring and radiation protection requirements.

The portable Radhound radiation detection instrument is a cost effective, feature packed digital radiation monitor that is simple and easy to use. The radiation count rate is displayed in large clear numbers and also on a bar scale. Our smart averaging software means a steady display that can be read with confidence, yet provides a fast response.

For source finding, one button push on the radiation detection meter changes the display to a histogram plot. Alpha and Beta/Gamma counts can be displayed separately or on the same screen.

For surveying Radhound also has a time to count function.

Additional Options

Probe Cable

A curly probe cable is provided with the Radhound portable radiation detection meter as standard and is fixed at the monitor end.

No probe cable is provided with the Radhound X as this will depend on customer preference. A 1 metre straight cable is recommended for most applications, however, different lengths and types of cable, such as coiled cable, are available. We can also provide quantity numbers of probe cables to order.

Data Transfer Options

Wired Serial Socket

An RS-232 port can be added to the Radhound or Radhound X to allow connection to a Windows-based PC or tablet. Measurements can be transferred in real time and displayed on the screen through a simple communications protocol. This data can then be saved in a .csv format. A straight through 9 way female serial connector must be used, which is not included. Please be aware that adding this port removes the weatherproof status of the Radhound X.

Infared Serial

The Radhound can be fitted with an internal infrared transmitter to send data without the need for a wired RS-232 serial port. The IR transmitter can transfer measurement data in one direction only, over a line-of-sight distance of up to 1 metre. An IR receiver is included with the purchase of this option, which plugs into the USB drive of a Windows based PC or tablet, to pick up real time data transmission from the meter.All contamination probes are tested against our in-house sources and are provided with a basic test certificate, confirming that the probe response to radiation is within the expected limits.

Instrument Cases

Rugged travel cases are available in sizes to suit your application. These are genuine Peli Cases, which offer unrivalled protection for your equipment. They have foam inserts which can be customized to fit which ever probes you require.

Connector Type

Please specify with your order which type of connector you would like to be used for your probe and meter. MHV connectors are now the most common for handheld devices and are used for our products as standard. Some older instruments use PET or BNC type connectors, which we can fit by request, but please note that some of these older types are not recommended due to safety concerns.
