S.E. International Monitor MC1K Analog Radiation Detector
Analog Radiation Detector.
Have questions about buying this product?
The MC1K is an ergonomic handheld survey meter using a built-in energy compensated GM detector. It detects gamma and x-rays up to 1000 mR/hr over 4 selectable ranges. The energy compensated Geiger counter affords the detector a more linear response to gammas and x-rays over the full range. A beep sounds and a count light flashes with each event detected.
Applications & Uses: Expanded Range up to 1000 mR/hr, Linear Response needs with Energy Compensation, Checking accelerator & x-ray shielding for leakage, Checking industrial gauges; such as moisture, density, or level gauges containing Cesium-137, Locating lost sources, Personal protection, General surveying
