Radiation Alert Ranger

Specifications:

Detector

Energy Sensitivity

Detects Alpha down to 2 MeV. Detects Beta down to .16 MeV; typical detection efficiency at 1 MeV is approx. 25%. Detects Gamma down to 10 KeV through the detector window. 3340 CPM/mR/hr (137Cs). Smallest detectable level for 125I is .02 µCi at contact.

Built-in Efficiencies

Sulfur (35S), Strontium (90Sr/y), Cesium (137Cs), Phosphorus (32P), Carbon (14C), Iodine (131I), Cobalt (60Co), and Alpha

Display

Graphic LCD with Backlight

Anti Saturation

Meter will hold at OVER RANGE in fields as high as 100 times the maximum reading.

Averaging Periods

This radiation detector display updates every 3 seconds. At low background levels, the update is the average for the past 30-second time period. The timed period for the average decreases as the radiation level increases.

Outputs

USB for use with Free Observer USB Software for PCs
Bluetooth for use with the Free Observer BLE App for Android.

Count Light

Red LED flashes with each radiation event.

Audio Indicator

Internally mounted beeper (can be switched off for silent operation)

Power Requirements

USB Power or Two (2) AA alkaline batteries (included). Approx. 800 hrs @ background.

Accuracy

Reference to Cs137
Typically ±15% from factory, ±10% with NIST Source Calibration NIST Calibration Additional

Selectable Alert Settings

mR/hr .001 – 100 and CPM 1 – 350,000. Pulsating beeper sounds the alert. Adjustable alert levels are used for mR/hr / CPM, and µSv/hr / CPS. 70db @ 1m. Alarm will sound when in Timer Mode when set alarm threshold is reached.

Temperature Range

-10° to +50°C (14° to 122°F)

Humidity

10% to 70% Non-Condensing.
