This general purpose, handheld analog ratemeter supports operating two separate radiation detectors. A switch allows the user to select between the internally mounted GM detector with an exposure range of 0 - 20 mSv/h (0 - 2000 mR/hr) or an external GM or scintillator detector of choice (see table below).
The cast aluminum instrument housing, with its separate battery compartment and accompanying metal handle, offer an industrial robustness and quality that promote long-lasting protection and instrument life. The front-panel controls include a rotary switch for selecting the five-decade range and instrument shut-off, an audio on/off switch, a fast/slow response switch, a high voltage display button, and a battery test button.
The analog meter face comes in a variety of options to support the measurement units and ranges for the additional external detector selected. A one meter (39 in.) straight type detector cable with "C" style connector is included in the price of the instrument.
This table lists the most commonly used meter faces. Others are available upon request.
