SUMMARY

SUMMARY
FUNCTIONS AND FEATURES
( ALL MODELS )
Measures a-rays:
Thanks to its LND sensor, GAMMA - SCOUT®
measures a-rays in addition to y- and ß-rays.
Easy Reading: In measuring mode
( button), the display shows the
current radiation measurement rea-
ding every 2 sec. The display also temporarily
shows the average H of the last day (24h, 12 am
to 23:59 pm).
Large Scale: GAMMA-SCOUT® is calib-
rated to measure across a wide scale
(0.1 up to 1,000 µSv/h).
Tested Calibration: Each GAMMA-
SCOUT® radiation meter is subjected
to a final test. This test is supervised
by the Institute of Radiation Protection; a state
university for applied technology. The tested
device must be within a confidence interval of
5% against a master, which in turn, is
adjusted to a gauged reference Cs 137 emitter
and the ODL.
Dose Rate and Dose:
GAMMA-SCOUT® can be used as a dose meter
(cumulative radiation).
Flexible display:
The dose rate may be displayed in
sievert or Rem.
Energy-Saving Constant Operation:
The GAMMA-SCOUT® monitors radiation
day and night and logs data for later
download. Due to sophisticated electronics, its
battery lasts for years. The "RECHARGEABLE"
model works with a rechargeable battery.
When the GAMMA-SCOUT® is connected to a
PC, the device is powered via the USB port. This
protects and charges the battery.
Data Storage:
stores all registered pulses in its
internal memory and keeps them
ready for you to use when desired. 32,000
readings: For constant monitoring, storage of
environmental data is set at an interval of one
value all 2h which equates to 7 years of memory
capacity. For details see page 52.
Data Read-Out: From now on the mea-
sured values can be read on Microsoft
WIN and MAC OS X (see GAMMA - SCOUT
TOOLBOX 5® and GAMMA - SCOUT READER®
on page 53 - 65). The interface doc. can be
offered if requested.
Certification: GAMMA-SCOUT® meets
all European CE standards as well as
the American "FCC 15 standard". GAM-
MA-SCOUT® may be carried on aircraft.
GAMMA - SCOUT® w/ALERT ( BASIC
FUNCTIONS PLUS ALERT AND TICKER )
Dose Rate Threshold:
This model features an acoustic alert
when radiation level exceeds a user
programmed threshold.
Ticker: The user can set an acoustic
ticker which activates with each gam-
ma pulse detected. To save battery
resources, the signal shuts down after ten
minutes and must be restarted. On devices with
rechargeable batteries (see GAMMA-SCOUT®
RECHARGEABLE) the ticker will not shut down.
GAMMA - SCOUT® ONLINE / REAL TIME ( WITH
THE FUNCTIONS OF THE ALERT - MODEL )
ONLINE/Real Time Feature:
The GAMMA-SCOUT® can transmit
both - the acquired pulses as well as
the dose and dose rate to a connected PC at the
same time as the measurement.
