Shenzhen, China — CESTSEN, a professional manufacturer of security screening equipment, has officially launched its latest innovation: the RadMet-10 dual function radiation and metal detector. Engineered for fast and reliable security checks, this compact handheld device allows inspectors to locate radioactive materials and concealed metals in a single screening pass, dramatically improving efficiency at busy checkpoints and reducing the need for multiple separate instruments.

Traditional security screening often requires operators to carry both a radiation detector and a metal detector, which slows down inspection and increases fatigue. The RadMet-10 solves this problem by integrating both functions into one lightweight unit. With a total weight of only 400 grams and a slim 420 x 85 x 45 mm profile, the detector can be used continuously for long shifts without discomfort, making it ideal for high-throughput environments such as airports, seaports, customs and border crossings.
At the heart of the RadMet-10 is a 2cc CsI (Tl) scintillation detector paired with a silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) readout system. This combination delivers fast, precise response to gamma radiation across an energy range of 17 keV to 3 MeV, and is sensitive enough to detect heavily shielded nuclear materials that gamma-only screening methods may miss. The device also features automatic background calibration, allowing it to adapt instantly to changing environmental radiation levels as inspectors move between quiet checkpoints and crowded public areas.
When a threat is detected, the RadMet-10 alerts the operator through sound and vibration alarms together with a tri-color LED indicator: green indicates the unit is powered on and in standby, yellow signals a continuous radiation alarm, and red indicates a metal alarm. This intuitive color-coded system lets security staff understand the cause of an alarm at a glance and respond immediately, with no guesswork.
