The Rapid Deployment Kit (RDK) is designed for quick assessment of
chemical and radiological threats. The kit includes four AreaRAE
monitors and a turn-key Host Controller running ProRAE Guardian software
for monitoring from a safe zone up to two miles (3km) away. Housed in a
military-grade self-contained case, the Rapid Deployment Kit is easy to
transport and easy to deploy. The system can easily scale up to 64
detectors and includes option for GPS.
Key Features
Rapid Deployment: The Host Controller is "open & operate", and the AreaRAE's inside are stored with handles on
In-case charging
Portability: Complete system in easy to transport military grade cases

Applications
HazMat & Emergency Response: Shave valuable minutes off response times and remotely monitor spills from safe location
Public Venue Protection: Remotely monitor stadiums, convention centers, etc. from a central security command center
Marine and offshore wells work party protection: Simultaneously
monitor multiple floors (e.g. drilling, refining, processing) from
central control room
Refineries and Petrochemical: Reployable system ideal for monitoring workers' safety during refinery turnarounds
Environmental Remediation: System can be rapidly redeployed to different remediation sites
