The Piranha MAMMO X-ray QA meter comes ready to use with everything you need – an all-in-one multifunction meter. Connect to your computer wireless or via USB for a complete QA system.
The unique feature of the Piranha Mammo X-ray QA meter makes it possible to check the position of the detector before measuring. By using the Position Check function, you can verify that the detector area is fully irradiated. Possible field inhomogeneities are also neutralized.
Its compatibility with our Ocean Next™ software provides quick and repeatable QA work. Ocean can perform instant real-time analysis during your measurements. Use your tablet/laptop as both an interactive display during the measurements and as a powerful analysis tool when you are back at the office.
