HERMES systems are rugged, portable units for radiation detection, designed and tailored for a wide range of operational scenarios such as gamma and neutron detection, dose rate measurement, gamma spectroscopy and more. HERMES systems are suited for emergency response activities, as they are mounted inside robust and high-IP technical cases, which can be handheld or vehicle-mounted.
The HERMES product line includes customisable configurations, such as:
- HERMES NAI or CSI, with NaI(Tl) or CsI(Tl) detector and MCA to perform gamma spectrometry
- HERMES GMT or PLA, with Geiger-Muller or plastic detector for high-sensitivity gamma monitoring
- HERMES NEU, with 10BZnS neutron detector and plastic moderator for artificial neutron source detection
- HERMES SENTINEL, combining NaI(Tl), GM tubes and neutron detector for comprehensive radiation surveillance
HERMES units support remote operation via LAN or Wi-Fi through a smartphone or a tablet. According to the configuration, the proprietary software provides real-time dose rate data, nuclide identification, alarms, and interactive heat mapping. Scan results, GPS coordinates and events are automatically logged into the local memory for off-line processing.
HERMES units incorporate advanced gain stabilization, dead time correction, and automatic energy calibration based exclusively on natural background radiation (no source needed to calibrate).
