Like earlier SMARTS models, the SMARTS II area monitors provide continuous detection of RF radiation within a specific area. The SMARTS II uses the latest, ultra- wideband sensor technology of the Nardalert™ RF personal monitors. The result is an area monitor that covers most of the usable RF spectrum in a single monitor with “shaped” frequency-dependent sensitivity that matches the standard used to determine compliance. The dual sensor design accurately detects all types of electric fields from 2 MHz to 100 GHz. The microwave portion of the sensor employs thermocouple detectors so that radar signals are accurately converted to true RMS values while the patented diode design used for the lower frequencies provides RMS detection even in very complex, multi-signal environments. SMARTS II monitors respond equally to all polarizations and cover an entire hemisphere. They can even be mounted on a metallic wall. There is a SMARTS II model shaped to match each of the major standards. The SMARTS II operates from a common nine-volt battery or a 12-volt or 24-volt DC supply. Every monitor has an audio alarm. An alarm condition causes both a voltage transition to occur and a SPDT relay to operate. Either the TTL signal or the relay contacts can be used to provide remote alarms, a record of alarm conditions, and/or automatic shutoff of equipment. The SMARTS II area monitors can be used outdoors by installing the monitor in a NEMA weatherproof enclosure.

When operating normally, the alarm LED flashes approximately every 40 seconds. If operating under battery power and the battery needs replacement, a “chirp” accompanies the LED flash. A continuous audible and visual alarm occurs when the SMARTS II detects RF radiation at its preset level or higher. Both an...
