At very low residual gas pressure below 10-12 mbar, as foreseen in future low-energy storage rings currently under development at the MPI-K and FAIR, conventional residual gas beam profile monitors cease to work with reasonable count rates. One possible way to overcome this restriction is the use of a supersonic gas jet as a profile monitor. Such a jet could be shaped as a thin curtain, thus providing a uniform target with a variable target density extended over the whole beam. A possible setup of such a device taking into account vacuum considerations, expected count rates and an envisioned detection scheme are presented in this contribution.
