SPRD SPECTRA is intended to detect, localize and identify radioactive and nuclear materials by their gamma and neutron radiation as well as the amplitude gamma spectra. The device identifies radionuclides with indication of the category that they belong to (in compliance with the IAEA requirements).  It is used to prevent the illicit transfer of these materials across state borders, as well as at the companies and institutions dealing with gamma and neutron radiation sources as per the below:

– medical radionuclides: 18F, 67Ga, 51Cr, 75Se, 89Sr, 99Mo, 99mTc, 103Pd, 111In, 123I, 125I,131I, 153Sm, 201Tl, 133Хе

– industrial radionuclides: 57Co, 60Co, 133Ba, 137Cs, 192Ir,152Eu, 22Na, 241Am

– special nuclear materials: 233U, 235U, 237Np, Pu [Reactor grade plutonium (more than 6% 240Pu)]

– naturally occurring radioactive materials: 40K, 138La, 226Ra, 232Th-decay series, 238U-decay series

Note. The list of nuclides the device is able to identify may be extended if needed
