Small and light enough to go anywhere, yet sensitive enough to detect minuscule amounts
of gamma, beta or X-rays. Excellent for scanning lab work areas and clothing for
traces of radioactivity after clean-up, or as a personal monitor in areas of potential
radiation exposure. Useful in school labs for geology and science projects. One-button
operation, can be used by untrained personnel. Uses a Geiger-Mueller tube detector.
The Meter registers 0~10mR/hour (milli-Roentgen) and 0~100 uSv/hour (microsieverts)
on a dual scale. Audible clicking will increase with the amount of background radiation.
Beeping begins at 20mR/hr, increasing in frequency in proportion to the radiation
level. Powered by a 9-Volt battery, included, which lasts 50 hours at normal background
levels. Including bdual scale: 0~100mR/hour and 0~1000uSv/hour. If required, this
unit can be calibrated to NRC standards by a government authorized test facility.
Used in applications where radiation may be present in greater than trace amounts.
