Two-Way Ranging “Live” Radiation Source
TWR Features:
- Simulated point source of radiation – omni directional
- Automatic detection of source by instrument
- Dynamic response of simulator instrument to source based on1/R2
- Quick deployment in indoor or outdoor setting
- 100’ range of detection
- Configurable dose rate at 1 foot from source
Run Seamless Training Exercises:
- Two Way Ranging technology continually measures distance from simulator instrument to adjust rate and dose automatically
- Sources are small and easy to conceal
- No complicated setup - place source, turn on and start exercise
- Configure measured dose rate at 1foot using SCC to change “activity”
- Deploy multiple sources and train with multiple devices simultaneously
- Swap between automatic response to TWR sources to manual control with SCC

Range of Operation
- Simulated gamma radiation is detectable to approximately 100 ft. line of sight. Depending upon material composition, obstructions may reduce operational distance.
- Remote wireless connection with SCC is approximately 100 ft line of sight. Depending upon material composition, obstructions may reduce operational distance.
