from two directions.\u00a0 Firstly we used the Tracerco training PowerPoint presentation to teach ourselves the ins and outs of the PED+.\u00a0 The presentation was easy to follow but also contains training information on the other PEDs in the production range.\u00a0 As the PED-IS, PED Blue and PED+ are similar in operation this doesn\u2019t really effect the package greatly.<\/p><p>The second approach we took was to give the PED+ to a person who had no previous experience of the instrument.\u00a0 We switched it on and left the guinea pig with it for about an hour.\u00a0 By the time we returned the subject was quite ofay with The PED+.<\/p><p>All this goes to prove that the PED+ is simple to use and maintain. Although the trial wasn\u2019t an extensive one, we at CBRN Europe are extremely happy with the results.<\/p><p>If you would like to find out more information about the Tracerco PED+ please visit their at\u00a0<a id=\"1\" href=\"http:\/\/www.tracerco.com\/monitors\/ped-plus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.tracerco.com\/monitors\/ped-plus\" data-button=\"LinkPreview\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>http:\/\/www.tracerco.com\/monitors\/ped-plus<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As you all aware we at CBRN Europe won\u2019t place equipment upon its website without at least having looked at [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":41,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-36","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cbrneurope.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/36","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cbrneurope.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cbrneurope.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cbrneurope.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cbrneurope.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=36"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/cbrneurope.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/36\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":243,"href":"https:\/\/cbrneurope.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/36\/revisions\/243"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cbrneurope.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/41"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cbrneurope.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=36"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
