The EXO 8 is the world’s only direct-to-cloud connected portable area monitor capable of detecting:
- Up to eight gases simultaneously.
- Gamma radiation at three times the distance compared to competitors’ devices, so responders will know radiation is present sooner and from further away, reducing the risk of harmful exposure.
This results in the most robust protection and early hazard detection at your worksites, and real-time data streaming to the cloud for unparalleled situational awareness and rapid incident response. And it’s an all-in-one rugged, drop-and-go device, with up to 100 days of battery life.

The EXO 8 offers a gas expansion module that can add up to four additional sensors for a total of eight gases; an integrated gamma radiation sensor with a range that is three times the distance of competitors, and will operate continuously without cycling on or off; also a higher resolution full-colour dual display with live readings screen for real-time gas and gamma levels and dashboard screen to quickly see alarms and device status.
