Backpack frame
This rugged backpack frame is perfect to carry the MS-1000, MS-700, or MS-350 gamma spectrometers, making it the ideal solution for extended walking surveys in challenging terrain. The frame is equipped with a clip-based mounting system that allows for quick and easy attachment and removal of the sensor, ensuring a secure fit during use and efficient handling in the field.

The base of the system is the trusted Lastenkraxe from Tatonka — a solid classic when it comes to transporting bulky and heavy equipment that doesn’t fit into a regular backpack. Originally designed for expedition gear, this carrying frame excels in load-bearing capability and user comfort.
With a capacity of up to 50 kg, the Lastenkraxe is one of the most robust backpack frames available. It features Tatonka’s well-padded V2 carrying system, which can be precisely adjusted to fit the user’s back. The integrated chambered back padding improves comfort and allows for optimal ventilation during long treks. An ergonomically shaped hip belt hugs the hips securely and distributes the weight evenly, reducing fatigue and making extended walks far more manageable.
The external aluminum frame provides a stable and secure platform to mount the spectrometer or other gear, enhancing overall stability during movement. The 25 cm deep base platform is ideal for supporting heavy instruments such as the Medusa gamma-ray spectrometers, and an integrated support foot allows the frame to stand upright independently — perfect for fieldwork that requires frequent pauses or quick deployment.
Whether you're conducting environmental surveys, geological fieldwork, or radiation mapping, this backpack frame offers unmatched durability, comfort, and adaptability for carrying advanced measurement equipment in the field.
