Description
RADAX SM 5000 is a Digital Handheld Survey meter to detect and measure primarily Gamma and X-ray radiation. Survey meters are portable radiation detection and measurement instruments used to check personnel, equipment and facilities for radioactive contamination, or to measure external or ambient ionizing radiation fields (to evaluate the direct exposure hazard). The hand-held survey meter is probably the most familiar radiation measuring device to society owing to its wide and highly visible use.
Radiation Detector
RADAX SM 5000 uses a Geiger-Mueller (GM) detector tube to detect radiation. The GM tube contains ionization gas which generates pulse of electrical current when radiations pass through the gas and causes ionization. These electrical pulses are counted electronically displayed in milli-Roentgens per hour (mR/hr) OR micro-Sieverts per hour (μ Sv/hr)
Key Features
Detect and Monitor radiation from Radioactive materials or from X-ray machines while working near such substances or equipment. Check for leakage radiation.
Take precaution on detecting level & Intensity of radiation.
