Simulation Contamination Monitor
Simulation Contamination Monitor
The STS 812 consists of a real Rotem Ram Gene with added STS electronics. The instrument
detects the gas given off by the STS simulant, which has been applied to the surface to be
monitored. This “radiation” may be detected by passing the instrument close to and slowly over
the surface, as would be done with a real Ram Gene when used by a skilled operator. Too fast,
or too far away results in no detection – excellent training!
The STS 812 is an almost exact replica of the real Ram Gene which is now the instrument of
choice for all UK hospitals A&E departments as recommended by the HPA and as such the STS
simulator provides a vital training aid for new users. It has also been purchased by the UK police
forces, homeland security and universities.
