Model 6
The Model 6 is a gamma exposure ratemeter equipped with an internally housed, energy compensated GM detector that measures over the range of 0 to 10 mSv/h (0 to 1000 mR/hr). The front panel offers a single rotary switch for selecting the three-decade range, instrument shut-off, and battery test. The Model 6 is a complete turn-key system and includes two "D" cell batteries.
