When the World's Eyes Are on the Field, Bertin Nuclear Watches Over Everyone.

During a major international soccer tournament, Bertin Nuclear deployed its environmental radiological monitoring system to ensure continuous surveillance of event sites, addressing the rare but real risk of radiological threats. The IAEA actively encourages host countries to deploy radiological detection and monitoring capabilities.

At the heart of the system is the GammaTRACER XL2 probe, a field-proven instrument that provides continuous, real-time measurement and recording of environmental gamma dose rates. It is fully autonomous, powered by solar energy with an integrated rechargeable battery, enabling uninterrupted operation under demanding conditions.

The system features a redundant, secure data transmission architecture combining 4G cellular connectivity with proprietary ShortLINK radio technology, ensuring uninterrupted communication even in crisis scenarios. Upon detection of an elevated dose rate, the probe automatically adjusts measurement cycles to deliver an immediate and precise response.

To monitor the network, Bertin Nuclear employs DataEXPERT 10, a web-based centralized data management solution. Operators view measurements in real time, analyze trends, and receive alerts automatically when anomalies are detected.

Integrating these technologies demonstrates that environmental radiological monitoring is a fundamental pillar of modern risk management and population protection rather than a standalone capability.
