Description
Overview
GAOTek portable geiger-muller radiation meter can be used to detect alpha, beta, gamma and X-rays, and the built-in 2.4 in (60.96 mm) flat GM detector is highly sensitive to alpha and beta sources. The digital display can be selected in different units such as mR / hr, CPM, CPS, or mSv / hr as required. The detector automatically compensates for the dead time of the GM tube, and the anti-saturation circuit prevents interference in the strong radiation field. The detector can accurately detect minor contamination, can take a timed reading, the time setting can be from 1 hours to 40 hours, and when the radiation level reaches the value set by the user, the alarm sounds.
Features
- Automatically compensates dead time
- Anti-saturation circuit prevents interference
