The Bertin Instruments AlphaS sets a high benchmark for field-ready, portable radon measurement. Housed in a heavy-duty, protective Pelicase, the instrument combines laboratory-grade accuracy with extreme field durability. Whether you are conducting compliance checks in workplace environments, residential radon screening, or rigorous assessments in industrial and mining operations, the AlphaS delivers rapid, reliable on-site results.

Equipped with an advanced ionization chamber, the device delivers an exceptional sensitivity of 1 cpm at 60 Bq/m³ (1.65 pCi/L), ensuring precise data even at background concentrations. Its expansive dynamic range reaches up to 200,000 Bq/m³ (5.4 nCi/L), making it just as capable during high-exposure mitigation testing as it is during low-level air quality surveys.
