PRODUCT OVERVIEWHigh Resolution Radiation Detection &Identification in the Palm of Your HandWhen radiation detection capabilities are necessary,operators must rely on the accuracy and dependability oftheir instruments. With the highest detector resolutionavailable in a pager-sized device, the nanoRaidervirtually eliminates the false alarms and false positivesthat are so common to personal radiation detectors.With both detection and identification capabilitiesavailable in a single, rugged device, those on the frontlines of homeland security can trust the nanoRaider tomake their job easier.About the same size as a cellphone, the belt wearablenanoRaider provides continuous detection capabilitywith visible, audible and tactile alerts. Once radiationhas been detected, the fast identification capability ofthe instrument provides essential information to theuser in the field, enabling them to make a next stepdetermination. The One Touch Reachback featureintegrated into the nanoRaider allows the user toimmediately send a notification to team members,superior officers, situation management personnel, andexpert analysts – all with a single push of a button.The nanoRaider uses uniquely constructed CadmiumZinc Telluride (CZT) detectors that enable exceptionalsensitivity and identification capabilities never beforeseen in a spectroscopic personal radiation detector(SPRD). The characteristic design of FLIR CZT detectors ismore rugged than scintillation-based detectors and doesnot require temperature stabilization. The nanoRaider isalso available with an optional neutron detector as wellas a full range of accessories.BENEFITS• Designed and built to meet the most ruggedfield environments• Easy to read display, even in bright sunlight• High resolution in a small device• Ease of use in high background environments• Highly reliable, accurate results• Small enough to be carried on a belt or in apocket• User interface almost identical to other FLIRradiation detectors, such as the identiFINDER®• Virtually eliminates the false alarms and falsepositives inherent in other personal radiationdetectorsTo reduce the training burden, the nanoRaider uses thesame easy to understand and navigate user interfacecommon to the entire family of FLIR radiation detectors.With two-button controls, operators can pick up ananoRaider and begin using it simply and quickly.With the nanoRaider, FLIR continues to provide the mosttechnologically advanced radio isotope identificationdevices in the industry.

ONE TOUCH REACHBACKLike other FLIR radiation instruments, the nanoRaider enables themost advanced communications features available in any classof radiation detector. With One Touch Reachback, users canimmediately provide full spectroscopic data as well as detaileddevice information, time, and GPS location to as many people asnecessary with the push of a button.WEB INTERFACENo longer do users have to physically connect their device toa computer, install secondary software, or use external emailto provide alarm notifications. Through a simple Bluetooth®connection, such notifications are all but automatic. This uniquecapability provides added security by retaining all detection andidentification data on the instrument itself and not on a localcomputer.NEXT GENERATION CZTCadmium Zinc Telluride (CZT) detectors are known for betterresolution in a smaller detector without the need for temperaturestabilization. Through ongoing research and development, FLIRhas optimized this material for radiation detection and accuratesource identification. In the nanoRaider, this ability virtuallyeliminates the inconvenience and expense associated with falsealarms and false positives, not to mention the time involved inobtaining secondary inspections necessary to clear an alarm. Inaddition, the CZT material is naturally more rugged than typicalscintillation detectors and is able to survive the general abusetypical of field deployments.FEATURES• Transflective color display• 24 hour battery life• IP63 compliant enclosure protection• Data storage for up to 600,000 identificationsand spectra and over 1 million alarms• ANSI N42.48 compliant• Standard ANSI N42.42 data output formatas preferred by triage teams as well as thegovernment and scientific communitiesA FAMILY OF INSTRUMENTSUnlike other companies, FLIR takes the approach that one sizedoesn’t fit all. We understand how important it is to have aninstrument that meets the specific requirements of the mission athand. To that end, the nanoRaider provides the same high qualityresults as much larger instruments, but with an inconspicuous,compact design.The entire family of FLIR radiation instruments has been developedto address the specific sensitivity, resolution, size, and weightrequirements of a variety of applications. Furthermore, each ofthese instruments, including the nanoRaider, employs the samesimple to use and understand interface, which in turn reduces thetraining burden. With more than 14,000 radiation instrumentsdeployed worldwide, the well-known and trusted FLIR userinterface has become industry standard.The Americas2800 Crystal DriveSuite 330Arlington, VA 22202T +1.703.416.6666Middle EastSuite 1-11Building 6E-ADubai Airport FreezonePO Box 371363Dubai, UAET +971 4 701 7195F +971 4 701 7194EuropePiepersberg 1242653 SolingenGermanyT +49 212 222090F +49 212 201045AsiaLevel 28 Gateway East152 Beach RoadSingaporeT +65.6827.9789F +65.6295.2567nanoraider_092311www.flir.com/detection
