    Description

    AccuRad™ PRD

    Mirion

    The Mirion AccuRad™ PRD is a next-generation personal radiation detector engineered in direct collaboration with state and federal law enforcement and emergency response agencies. Compact, discreet, and easy to use, it empowers users to quickly detect, identify, and respond to radioactive threats in the field.

    Built for high-performance in unpredictable environments, the AccuRad PRD features Variable Background Suppression (VBS), an advanced algorithm that filters out natural radiation fluctuations—ensuring you’re only alerted to real threats, not false positives.

    Whether used during tactical sweeps, large public events, or hazmat operations, the AccuRad PRD seamlessly integrates into daily operations for nuclear interdiction, dose rate monitoring, and emergency radiation response.

    Features

    • Solid and durable, with an impact-resistant covering

    • Simple to use − no training required

    • Discreet, with a top-screen display for quick-glance reading

    • Discreet, with a top-screen display for quick-glance reading

    • Directionality, helping users zero in on trouble faster

    • Low cost of ownership

    For discreet, hands-free detection

    The AccuRad PRD is lowprofile and easy to read with the top-screen display. Users no longer need to remove the PRD to take a look.


    For an entire week, month, mission

    without a battery change. The AA batteries in the AccuRad PRD last for 900 hours in the field, and are easily replaceable with commercial batteries.


    For waterproof protection

    for when teams are (literally) putting out fires.


    For “set it and forget it” use

    with minimal training and maintenance required. The AccuRad PRD is in-the-field easy — simple to use even in the toughest situations and offers a tutorial library in the smartphone app.


    For the reality field of work

    rough treatment, harsh conditions. The AccuRad PRD is solid, durable, with an impact-resistant covering to stand up to the test, time and time again.


    For when you can’t let a source get away

    Find the location of a radioactive hot spot in a large, busy environment with built-in directionality
