The Finnish Radiation Safety Authority STUK approves Radonova's radon instrument SPIRIT

Radonova has received the Finnish Radiation Safety Authority STUK's approval of the SPIRIT radon sensor for use in radon measurement. STUK's approval means that SPIRIT meets the requirements that Finnish law places on the safety and quality of radon measuring instruments. It also means that Radonova's customers in Finland can now use a reliable instrument that is approved by the Finnish regulatory authority.

“STUK's approval is an important step forward and proof that SPIRIT holds a very high standard in terms of reliability and safety. The Finnish Radiation Safety Authority has a very good reputation; not only in Finland, but also in other countries. It is therefore a strong international reference regarding ionizing radiation - in particular radon measurements. It also makes the approval important as we continue to introduce SPIRIT to a global market,” says José-Luis Gutiérrez Villanueva, Radon Measurement Specialist at Radonova.

“The market for radon instruments is developing rapidly. Approvals from STUK give customers a guarantee that the instrument meets a high standard and that the results are reliable. STUK is consistently very professional and has a very well-established process for approval. We are both happy and proud that they have now approved SPIRIT,” concludes José-Luis Gutiérrez Villanueva.

    Choose the right radon sensor to optimize ventilation in workplaces and schools

    In this article, we explain why it is important to choose the right radon sensor if you are looking to optimize ventilation in workplaces and schools. In properties with ventilation, radon levels can often vary and this is often dependent on whether the ventilation is running or not. Normally, radon levels are significantly lower when the ventilation is switched on. Depending on the design and eff

    Radonloggers: SPIRIT vs ROBIN

    In recent years, Radonova has developed and launched several advanced radon instruments. Among these are two radon sensors: SPIRIT and ROBIN. These instruments are quite different in terms of features and uses.

  • Continuous radon measurement falls into the so-called “active” category

    Using a detector to measure for radon continuously, what are the advantages?

    When the analysis results of your radon measurement shows that the average concentration of one or more measurement points exceeds the reference threshold set by the regulations, it is necessary to take action to reduce radon levels below the threshold.
    However, the radon concentration in the air is never constant. It evolves every minute. This is one of the reasons why it is recommended when p
