Model 500VBR with Silent
Vibrating Alarm. (US $369.00.)
The Rad*Scanner
Model 500 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.
The RAD SCANNER Model 500 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 500 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 stainless steel
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).
