The D5 RIID provides a unique high performance and versatile radiation detection device in a wearable package for military, homeland security, and industrial personnel.
The D5 RIID is a small, light, 3.5% resolution, wearable Radioisotope Identification Device (RIID) with an expansive radioisotope library and an ultra low false alarm rate. It continuously scans and accurately identifies radiological threats in real time, even in mixed source environments.
The D5 RIID combines small form factor with powerful radiometric performance and enhanced sensitivity at a medium resolution of 3.5%. The D5 RIID has an area efficiency which is 62% higher when compared with conventional RIIDs.
The D5 RIID is only 660g, compared with legacy instruments often weighing more than 2kg. Measuring 173 x 79 x 41mm, the D5 RIID is light and unobtrusive enough to be both belt and body worn. It is also ideal for prolonged one-handed operation and is easily usable by someone wearing full PPE.
While constantly scanning for threats and maintaining a high level of sensitivity, a low false alarm rate is essential. With a false alarm rate of just one in 24 hours, the D5 RIID consistently delivers accurate reliable information.
The D5 RIID can interface with or be integrated into existing systems, including smartphones, to enable reachback capability. Spectral results with enhanced resolution obtained in the field can be transmitted immediately to an offsite laboratory for secondary analysis. The D5 RIID can also link to a network of hubs and sensors to give a real time overview of a radiological threat.
The high sensitivity of the device means that any source, even very low activity sources, can be accurately detected.
An extensive built-in calibrated isotope library enables the D5 RIID to detect and identify mixed, shielded or heavily masked isotope configurations and confirm radionuclide identification across naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM), industrial, medical, and special nuclear materials.
D5 RIID meets both ANSI N42.34 and the more demanding US Department of Homeland Security Domestic Nuclear Detection Office (DNDO) technical capability standards.
We’re pleased to announce an update to the D5 RIID which brings new features and easier navigation of data to aid use in the field.
Localisation mode allows a user to pinpoint the location of a radioactive source. During normal scanning, the device will sound a tone approximately once per second. As the device moves closer to a radioactive source, the interval between these tones decreases so that there are more tones per second. The shorter the interval between tones, the closer the user is to a source. This tone can be audible or vibrational and is aided visually by a graph showing the gamma counts per second in yellow and the neutron counts per second in blue.
The spectral data which accompanies every collected confirmation mode scan has been enhanced to give more information. The “scale” button can be used to move through the spectrum to see all energies. The up and down buttons on the D5 RIID controls can be used to navigate the cursor to give the exact counts per second data at a chosen energy.
This mode allows a user to take readings, even when the device is at a distance. Entering remote mode on the D5 RIID and connecting it to a laptop or PC via USB or Bluetooth allows a user to utilise the D5 Settings App to remotely initiate and collect data from a scan without manually pressing the D5 RIID controls. The spectral data is saved in ANSI N42.42 file format. It is also possible to perform scans of the background radiation levels in the same way. This ensures the safety of the operator and speeds up the process of collecting data.
