Description
The dosimeter-radiometer MKС-01CA1 is intended for: measuring the ambient equivalent dose rate and dose of gamma (X-ray) radiation; measuring the density of beta and alpha particles from contaminated surfaces.
The device is used for searching for radioactive sources, monitoring radioactive contamination of banknotes and postal items, and assessing the radiation situation.
MKС-01CA1 has the following distinctive features:
– simultaneous measurement of dose rate and dose of γ (X) – radiation in a wide range of measurements, respectively, 0.1-10 000 μSv / h and 0.1 μSv – 1 Sv;
-measurement of the flux density of β- and α-particles in the range, respectively, 5‑30 000 and 10-30 000 particle/( min×cm2);
– guaranteed accuracy of ± 25% in all measurement ranges;
-second measurement cycle with a constant averaging of their result;
– instantaneous (within 1-2 seconds) automatic change of display readings with a significant change in the intensity of radiation;
– high sensitivity (from 50 keV) of measurements of γ(X) – quanta and β – particles;
– voice scoring of the measurements of γ(X)- radiation dose rate results in English and Spanish;
-digital and analog indication of the result, unit and current statistical measurement error on the display;
-tonal sound alarm when exceeding user-set thresholds for dose rate and dose of
γ (X) radiation, flux density of β- and α- particles;
-convenience in operation due to the compact body, low weight and the optimal algorithm for determining the background radiation;
-storing in non-volatile memory up to 2000 measurement results with the date and time of their implementation;-the ability to exchange data with a PC (via USB port).
