Tracerco Radiation Detection

Request a Quote

Tracerco offers a wide range of radiation monitors to measure radiation dose rate or monitor process and environmental contaminants in a number of applications. These include Oil & Gas, NDT, nuclear, CBRNe, industrial research and educational sectors, medical and life sciences, and environmental and waste management industries.

A leader in intrinsically safe radiation monitors, Tracerco instruments are designed to function safely in the presence of explosive gas mixtures. There are also non-intrinsically safe versions with the same functionality, for use in less-challenging environments.
