Summary of the technology

Advanced industrial radon detection system based on an innovative cylindrical chamber design, featuring axial sensor distribution and precision focusing bars to ensure superior measurement accuracy, reliability and long-term operational stability in demanding environments.
Prolonged exposure to radon in confined spaces such as basements and mines poses serious health risks, including respiratory problems and lung cancer. Older and underground buildings often lack adequate ventilation, making early detection of radon essential to preserve healthy environments. Existing solutions are either very inexpensive (approx 200 EUR) but unreliable, or accurate but very costly (approx. 10.000 EUR) and slow in measurement.
Cost-effective, high-precision, and versatile radon detection solution, designed to meet the growing market demand for monitoring in older buildings, confined spaces, and underground environments. Competitively priced compared to other reliable detection alternatives, it also offers advanced features such as isotope identification and network connectivity. It consists of a cylindrical chamber with axially distributed sensors and focusing rods, providing fast, reliable, and highly accurate measurements, while offering a more affordable and precise option
than existing systems.
