RAE Systems Europe to Demonstrate ATEX-Certified Line of Toxic Chemical and ITRAP Certified Radiation Detectors at A+A 2003 in Dusseldorf.Business Editors A+A 2003 Hall 6, Stand C12 DUSSELDORF, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 27, 2003 RAE Systems Inc. (AMEX AMEX See: American Stock Exchange :RAE), a leading global developer and manufacturer of rapidly-deployable, multi-sensor chemical and radiation detectors and networks for homeland security and industrial applications, today announced that it plans to demonstrate a line of ATEX-certified toxic chemical and ITRAP-certified radiation detectors at the A+A trade show in Dusseldorf on October 27-30. RAE Systems' hazardous environment sensors and rapidly deployable ad hoc networks are currently used for terrorist incident response, environmental remediation, industrial safety, emergency response and hazardous material spills in more than 50 countries around the world. The ATEX-certified products that RAE Systems plans to demonstrate are -- RAEGuard, a permanently mounted Photo-Ionization Detector (PID (1) (Process IDentifier) A temporary number assigned by the operating system to a process or service. (2) (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) The most common control methodology in process control. ) transmitter for the detection of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) -- MultiRAE Plus, one to five gas monitor that can be configured from a simple, inexpensive Oxygen/LEL monitor to an affordable five gas monitor for total protection in toxic environments including Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) -- BadgeRAE, a zero-maintenance personal gas detector for either hydrogen sulfide hydrogen sulfide, chemical compound, H2S, a colorless, extremely poisonous gas that has a very disagreeable odor, much like that of rotten eggs. It is slightly soluble in water and is soluble in carbon disulfide. or carbon monoxide carbon monoxide, chemical compound, CO, a colorless, odorless, tasteless, extremely poisonous gas that is less dense than air under ordinary conditions. It is very slightly soluble in water and burns in air with a characteristic blue flame, producing carbon dioxide; protection -- MiniRAE 2000, a hand-held Photo-Ionization Detector (PID) for VOC (Vertical Online Community) See vertical portal. measurement -- ppbRAE, a handheld PID monitor providing rapid, reliable measurement of VOCs and Toxic Industrial Compounds in the parts-per-billion (ppb) range. ATEX ATEX ATmosphere EXplosibles (French: Explosive Atmospheres) ATEX Anti-Terrorism Exercise ATEX ATM Tributary Extension (Tellabs) certification, or Directive 94/9/EC of the European Union Parliament and Council, provides technical requirements for equipment intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres. ATEX refers to the French phrase "ATmosphere EXplosible," and manufacturers who apply its provisions are able to sell their equipment anywhere in Europe without any further requirements. RAE Systems' family of radiation detectors have been certified for use by the International Atomic Energy Agency's (IAEA IAEA International Atomic Energy Agency. ) Illicit Traffic and Radiation Detection Assessment Program: The ITRAP ITRAP Illicit Trafficking Radiation Detection Assessment Program ITRAP Interagency Terrorism Response Awareness Program certified products that will be shown include: -- gammaRAE, a pager sized radiation detector used by law enforcement, border patrol, customs and immigration immigration, entrance of a person (an alien) into a new country for the purpose of establishing permanent residence. Motives for immigration, like those for migration generally, are often economic, although religious or political factors may be very important. officers to detect gamma radiation sources -- neutronRAE, a pager sized neutron and gamma radiation detector used for detecting the trafficking of fissile fis·sile adj. 1.
