PM1401K Series
Devices are designed for detection of alpha, beta, gamma and neutron radiation sources as well as for gamma spectra accumulation and precise measurement of gamma dose rate and levels of contaminated surfaces with alpha and beta irradiating sources. Instruments are able to operate simultaneously as an alarming device , search instrument, survey meter, spectrometer and identifier. Alerts users of the presence of radiation sources via audible and vibration alarms.
