Detectra Technologies

Hazardous Air Doesn’t Announce Itself.

Detectra builds air quality monitoring instruments for the people who can’t afford to guess β€” first responders, hazmat teams, and workers in environments where invisible threats are a daily reality.

πŸ§ͺ
Toxic Gases HCN, HCl, Clβ‚‚, HF β€” colourless, odourless at dangerous concentrations, and immediately life-threatening without warning.
☒️
Radiation Gamma and beta radiation in unknown environments β€” invisible and accumulating before symptoms appear.
🏭
Heavy Metals Lead and cadmium dust in worksites β€” chronic exposure with no immediate warning signs and long-term health consequences.
πŸ’¨
Particulates & LEL Fine particles and explosive gas concentrations that accumulate silently until conditions become critical.

Who We Serve

Built for Two Critical Markets

Emergency Response First Responders & Hazmat Teams

When a team walks into an unknown environment, they need to know what’s in the air immediately. The MDU gives them real-time, cloud-connected data on the threats that matter most β€” before they become casualties.

  • Preliminary scene assessment for chemical, gas, and radiation threats
  • Sub-60 second data to command teams via cloud dashboard
  • Offline 915MHz variant for infrastructure-free or classified deployments
  • Rugged stainless steel build for field conditions
Product: MDU β€” Mobile Detection Unit
Occupational Health Worker Safety & Compliance Programs

Heavy metal exposure doesn’t show up in symptoms until the damage is done. The ACU gives safety managers a simple, tamper-resistant way to measure what workers are actually breathing β€” with lab results that hold up in a compliance report.

  • Personal and area monitoring for lead, cadmium, and other heavy metals
  • ICP-MS lab analysis β€” defensible results for regulatory compliance
  • Simple one-button deployment, no training required
  • Available as rental per-test or owned fleet units
Product: ACU β€” Air Collection Unit

Why Detectra

What Sets Us Apart

🎯
Purpose-Built, Not Adapted

Every Detectra product is designed from the ground up for a specific use case. No retrofitted general-purpose hardware β€” just instruments that do exactly what the job requires.

⚑
Fast Where It Counts

The MDU puts data in your team’s hands in under 60 seconds. In an emergency, the difference between knowing and guessing is measured in minutes β€” sometimes less.

πŸ”’
Secure by Design

MQTT QoS 2 with Class 2 data protection for cloud deployments. A fully offline 915MHz variant for environments where network connectivity isn’t an option β€” or isn’t allowed.

πŸ”¬
Lab-Grade Results

The ACU is engineered for ICP-MS analysis β€” the gold standard for heavy metal detection. Results you can submit to a regulator, not just reference internally.

βš™οΈ
Simple to Deploy

Both products are designed to be used by the people who need them, not just technicians. One button to start. Clear LED indicators. No manuals required in the field.

πŸ“
Modular & Scalable

The MDU’s daisy-chained sensor architecture means you configure it for the mission β€” not the other way around. Add or swap sensor boards as your requirements evolve.
