Safely and compliantly detect Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM) in hazardous industrial sites. The NORM IS is an Intrinsically Safe (IS) Radiation Survey Meter specifically designed for NORM detection in environments like the oil & gas and mineral processing industries. Certified for use in hazardous (Ex) areas, it features a large, easy-to-read display and provides accurate measurements of alpha, beta, and gamma radiation associated with NORM, ensuring workplace safety. Supplier: Tracerco
An intrinsically safe (IS) radiation survey meter certified for use in hazardous areas where Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM) may be present. It is used to measure and monitor NORM levels on equipment and in the environment. The device provides a safe and critical tool for regulatory compliance and personnel protection, ensuring workers are protected from unexpected NORM exposure. It is available with dual probe capability (GM and Scintillator) for both surface contamination and dose rate measurement.
An intrinsically safe monitor for the detection, measurement, and surveying of Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM) contamination and dose rates in hazardous environments like oil & gas and chemical processing.

Natural Occurring Radioactive Material Monitor, Contamination Monitor, Tracerco NORM Monitor-IS
NORM stands for Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material, referring to radioactive elements found in the environment, often concentrated by industrial processes (e.g., in oil/gas sludge).
It is an Intrinsically Safe (IS) meter optimized to detect the specific low-level gamma and beta radiation associated with NORM contamination.
