Beta dose rate meter type RM706 developed & manufactured by NUCLEONIX SYSTEMS uses state-of-art electronic devices. It uses 1” dia plastic scintillator coupled to 1” PMT as the Beta Scintillation Probe.
Entire electronics is built-in on a single PCB contains circuits to provide HV to detector probe, convert and count the scintillation pulses into micro-controller. Embedded code provides required user interface/soft functions for the instrument operation.
Instrument can measure the Beta dose rate in Rad/h and countrate in CPS/CPM. |
Features
- Conforms to ANSI N42.17A performance specifications for Health Physics instrumentation (portable) &
 compliant.
- Compact, handheld, portable, battery operable unit.
- Designed using state of art electronic devices / Microcontroller.
- Beta probe uses 1” dia plastic scintillator with Beta entrance window coupled to 1” PMT.
- Visual display on 16x2 dot-matrix display.
- Displays Beta dose rate in Rad/h and countrate in cps/cpm.
