R700 Backpack Detector

The identiFINDER R700 Backpack Radiation Detector (BRD) offers a hands-free capability for broad-area radiological search and monitoring missions. The identiFINDER R700 provides the user all that is required to successfully perform wide-area searches quickly, efficiently and confidently. Providing the ultimate versatility, the identiFINDER R700 can be placed for stationary monitoring at makeshift checkpoints, fence-line monitoring, and other temporary screening locations. When coupled with radiation monitoring software, the identiFINDER R700 can be used as a fixed-site monitoring tool.

FLIR IdentiFinder R700

Highly Sensitive, Lightweight Backpack Radiation Detector

The FLIR identiFINDER R700 Backpack Radiation Detector (BRD) offers a hands-free capability for broad area radiological search and monitoring missions. The identiFINDER R700 provides the user all that is required to successfully perform wide-area searches quickly, efficiently and confidently. Providing the ultimate versatility, the identiFINDER R700 can be placed for stationary monitoring at makeshift checkpoints, fence-line monitoring, and other temporary screening locations. When coupled with radiation monitoring software, the identiFINDER R700 can be used as a fixed-site monitoring tool.

Building on the award-winning identiFINDER R440, the R700 offers an advanced spectroscopic algorithm and detection techniques scaled up to a man portable backpack for increased sensitivity and speed. The R700’s capabilities configured as a backpack or a stationary device allow multiple mission sets from wide area searches to temporary check points. Providing critical information to decision makers quickly is essential. The R700 provides the capability to do so in real time and on demand.

INTERROGATE AND ISOLATE RADIOLOGICAL THREATS QUICKLY

Building on the award-winning identiFINDER R440, the identiFINDER R700 offers advanced spectroscopic algorithm and detection techniques scaled to a man-portable backpack for increased sensitivity and speed.

  • Detect harmful neutrons with NaI or count them with our dual-mode NaIL detector without the need for an additional neutron detector

  • Large 2” x 4” x 8” detector allows for rapid detection and identification of even the smallest radiation sources; source-less “quantum gain” stabilization improves data collection, reducing false positives

  • 360° EasyFinder™ mode collects and interprets data to pinpoint radiation at the source, enabling faster location of threats

DEPLOY AT THE SCENE OR ON THE MOVE, COVERTLY

The identiFINDER R700 can be configured as a nondescript backpack or a stationary screening device, allowing for multiple mission sets from covert wide-area searches to temporary checkpoints.

  • Ergonomic design for all day operator wear. The long battery life and balanced load are designed for extended missions

  • Unmarked backpack form-factor and mobile phonebased user interface allow operators to detect radiological threats covertly, even in a crowd

  • Included tripod mount enables stationary deployment for remote radiation monitoring. The rugged and weatherproof IP67 design operates in the harshest weather conditions

SHARE INTELLIGENCE BROADLY, OR OPERATE SILENTLY

Providing critical information to decision makers quickly is essential, so the identiFINDER R700 provides the capability to do so in real-time and on demand. Wireless communications and a robust API enable integration with user-deployed networks. Tethered-display options provide a radio silent (air-gapped) option for highly sensitive missions.

  • Ability to monitor and control remotely using the Mobile App (iOS (available), Android (future))

  • Built-in wireless communications and a robust API enable integration with user-deployed networks. ANSI N42.42 data output is standard for easy integration

  • Tethered-display versions will provide a radio silent (air-gapped) option for highly sensitive missions
