About Victoreen Radiation Monitoring

Victoreen, a world leader in the detection and characterization of ionizing radiation, was founded in 1928 by John Austin Victoreen. Until 1946, Victoreen was the only maker of nuclear instruments. Victoreen's early contract to build instruments was to support the development of the first atomic bomb as part of the Manhattan Project. After the end of WWII, Victoreen was the major supplier of instruments for the first atomic tests in the Marshall Islands in 1946 for the Able, Baker and Charlie tests. Victoreen provided 95% of the instrumentation for the South Pacific atomic bomb tests and became known as the “First Nuclear Company”.

Over the past 75 years, Victoreen has been recognized as a leader in diverse applications of radiation detection technology, increasingly dedicating ourselves to the commercial nuclear power industry. While Victoreen was acquired by Fluke Corporation in 2004, the Victoreen quality and reliability have remained. Victoreen consists of an experienced staff dedicated to the design, fabrication, testing and support of process and area radiation monitoring systems.

In the future, we will continue to enhance our product line with advanced electronic designs, providing the same level of product excellence and unmatched technical support that our customers have come to expect.
