This portable, standard counter is perfect for monitoring radioactive sources in the lab. With its power-conserving push button, it detects beta, gamma, and X-radiation (0-10mR/hour) with easy, one-touch operation. The LED indicator glows and the counter makes clicking sounds as radiation is detected. If radiation exceeds 20mR/hour, the meter indicates the danger by beeping. The unit features a sensitive, accurate Geiger-Muller detector; a unique logarithmic-scale analog meter; and durable construction. Factory calibrated to NIMS (Cesium 137 gamma source). Includes instructions and a 9V battery.
Please Note: Item (CP33025-00) only available to US Customers.
All Geiger counters sold by VWR Education Companies are for educational purposes only. They will measure different types of radiation including alpha, beta, gamma, and X-rays, but they should not be used for any health, safety or medical purposes, or to determine a human being's safety in an area that is suspected of radiation exposure.
Our Geiger counters will detect different types of radiation, but unless you know how to properly calibrate them and interpret the data, these Geiger counters should not be used to determine safe or unsafe levels of radiation exposure.
Please let us know if you have any questions.
