The AMP-100 Area Monitor
Probe is a GM tube based rate meter. It is a state-of-the-art
microprocessor-based instrument, designed for highly stable and accurate
measurements of dose rate and integrated dose rate gamma radiation. |
| The AMP-100 covers a measuring
range of 0.001 R/h up to 1000 R/h. It is a lightweight and compact
instrument with a large, four 7-segment LCD. The AMP-100 sophisticated
software offers special features and optimal performance. The wide
dynamic range from 0.001 R/h to 1000 R/h, is obtained by automatic dead
time correction, according to the preset calibration. A special
averaging function softens the readout and maintains fast response time,
while keeping the standard deviation at a minimum. |

Technical
Description |
|
The
Area Monitor Probe (AMP-100) is a high-range GM tube-based detector
designed to be continuously used in areas where high exposure levels
exists.
The
instrument consists of three parts: the Meter box ( which includes the
display unit, operating pushbuttons and detector’s electronics); The
probe head, which contains the GM tube; and the connecting cable,
which is fitted with quick-connect-type connectors at each end.
The AMP-100’s connections and probe head feature watertight
sealing to allow for use in underwater applications |
