Features of
the RAD SCANNER 500
Check food and water
for radioactive contamination.
Display dose rate per minute on Six Digit Liquid Crystal
Display. Display total dose on the
LCD counter. Ideal, pocket-sized light weight
personal companion. Check for local
spills and suspected nuclear contamination. Audible, vibrating,
and visual indicator alarm. Check for environmental radon. Survey construction materials for
radioactivity. Check landfills and waste dumps for nuclear
hazards Carry a personal
nuclear hazard warning device in medical and laboratory sites
using radioactive tracers. Survey groundwater for radium
salt and radon contamination (uncertified
method). Test drilling pipe and equipment for
radioactivity from underground sources. Monitor air and water quality for
contamination in and near nuclear reactors. Check personal
possessions and jewelry for
harmful radiation. Check old porcelain
dentures and crowns for harmful radiation. Survey dinnerware and glassware
for radioactivity. Threshold alarm and
single event mode. Signals an
above-average-level threshold alarm. Months of continuous
operation on 9 volt battery. Low cost and easy to
use. Check food and water while
traveling.
Monitor Medical Waste for radioactive compounds. No range
switching necessary.
* Simple conversion
from µR to µSv. You divide µR by
100 to get µSv.
* Example: The Model 500VBR displays 123456 µR
is the same as 1234.56
µSv.
For use
by Emergency Response Teams
for Nuclear Decontamination Control and
Protection.
Aids in the search for Unauthorized
Nuclear Devices.
The Rad*Scanner
Model 500VBR is a small, portable nuclear radiation
monitor designed to industrial standards providing a personal
alert to nuclear contamination. The Rad*Scanner Model 500 will
give an alarm if the normal background radiation level should
rise and conveniently show the total nuclear radiation
exposure on a six digit Liquid Crystal Display.
* Simple conversion from
µR to µSv. You divide µR by 100 to get
µSv.

The RAD SCANNER Model 500VBR
will give you an immediate reading of radioactivity in
medical facilities, laboratories, power plants, emergency
rescue sites, scrap metal processors, oil field and pipeline
equipment outfits and environmental testing laboratories.
Providing real-time personal radiation exposure rate levels
with a lightweight package, the RAD*SCANNER responds to alpha
and beta particles, gamma photons and X-rays using a
shock-mounted, gas filled detector built to highest industrial
qualifications.
Our tube
manufacturer employs quality control programs modeled after
the following programs: MIL-E-1, MIL-Q-9858A, Appendix B of
10CFR50, NASA NP200-3 and ISO 9000. Our tube manufacturer
has developed a proprietary computer testing system where
every detector manufactured goes through a computer
generated, real life operational simulation, and the
performance specifications for the unit are actually
produced. This assures the customer that the detector will
meet or exceed the performance specification required for
the application.
The RadScanner Model 500VBR is
factory set to the maximum allowable average value set by the
Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the RAD SCANNER Model 500 will
run in excess of two months on a single 9 volt alkaline
battery. The RAD SCANNER responds with visible and audible
indicators. The durable ABS package with a belt clip weighs
less than 5 oz (125 grams) with battery. Dimensions are 4.15"
x 2.4" x 0.85" x (105mm x 61mm x 22mm).
