Highlights
The personal monitor Nardalert S3 provides warnings wherever people can be in danger from strong electromagnetic fields, in particular in areas like telecommunications, broadcasting, industry, military and air traffic control. The device is worn on the body and warns its user in good time before the permitted limit values are exceeded. The unique sensor technology in the Nardalert S3 is packaged in a field replaceable housing containing all the electronic data necessary to maintain calibrated operation. This allows your S3 to stay in service without costly logistics to keep multiple units calibrated – a major advantage for any Non-Ionizing Radiation (NIR) Safety Program. Your Nardalert S3 will always be capable of supporting new standards or guidelines, allowing future expandability and extending longevity.

LCD Display
Alarm events are always evident with visual LEDs combined with vibration and audible notifications. However, to provide the user more accurate information than just simple alarms, we have incorporated a top mounted LCD. The LCD simplifies operation, showing key data at start-up such as battery state and sensor information that the operator needs. With RF/ microwave sensors attached, the display indicates to the user the bands (<> 1 GHz) that are being detected. Optioned units use the display to provide even more information such as exposure history, logged data, alarm indications and more
Replaceable Standard Battery
The Nardalert S3 operates from a single standard type RCR123A battery. This battery is automatically recharged whenever it is plugged into a computer and we supply a universal charger to accelerate charging from any common AC source or mains plug. The included automotive USB adapter can also be used for charging, so your monitor is always ready to work
Standard and Optioned Models
The Nardalert S3 can be supplied in one of two different capabilities. Standard units provide all of the basic performance necessary for normal operations. Alarm levels are factory set at 50% and 200% of reference levels and basic screens provide all the information the user needs. Advanced users and applications should consider the additional capabilities of the NS3 Option Key. By entering a software code through the user software you can expand the operation of your Nardalert to store, display and download exposure data, alter alarm modes and levels, display historical data on the Nardalert S3’s display and reconfigure the interface for fiber optic connections
Housing
We packaged everything in a rugged plastic housing that allows you to use it mounted in a common shirt pocket or secure it with the supplied lanyard or belt-clip mounts. We supply a strong silicon rubber skin that provides additional shock protection as a standard accessory.
Sensors
The available sensors cover the most common international exposure limits. We offer sensors to follow the RF/microwave frequency limits promoted by the US FCC, IEEE (C95.1), Canada’s Safety Code 6 and ICNIRP. Many users around the world will find that one of these limits meets their local requirements for RF and microwave exposures.
PC Software
The Nardalert S3 software (NS3-TS) is supplied standard with every unit. Readings can be downloaded and displayed numerically or graphically by simply installing the software and plugging in the supplied USB cable. Users can download stored data into a database that is stored in the software for future recall. The six major software controls are:
- File: Allows file management (storing, sorting, and exporting)
- Database: Database management of files stored on computer
- Device Memory: Data management of readings stored on Nardalert
- Measurement: Displays real-time measurements on computer
- Configuration: Configures Nardalert S3 for use. Set alarm thresholds, logging rate, backlight time, etc.
- Extras: Sets unit up for regional preferences, installs options, general settings
