Portable Activity Meter – PAM-525

Handheld portable devices designed for simultaneous measurement of surface contamination by alpha/beta emitting radionuclides and ambient gamma dose equivalent rate.

Key Features

  • Simultaneous measurement of surface contamination by alpha/beta emitting radionuclides and ambient gamma dose equivalent rate
  • Large active area
  • User friendly, easy to use
  • Gasless scintillation detector
  • High detection efficiency and uniformity of response, thanks to two photomultipliers
  • Possibility of quick replacement of the light-tight foil of the detector
  • Up to 200 hours operation due to new integrated rechargeable battery
  • Two pre-settable alarm levels
  • Easy decontamination

Description

The PAM-525 series meters are portable hand-held instruments primarily intended for the measurement of alpha/beta surface contamination.

Because of their large detectors, more extensive areas can be quickly monitored.

Two standard models are available:

  • PAM-525B – Single channel meter, with a high sensitivity to beta contamination
  • PAM-525C – Double channel meter, can distinguish between alpha and beta contamination, slightly lower beta sensitivity than PAM-525B

The measurement of the gamma dose equivalent rate is an additional measurement independent of the measurement of surface contamination. It can warn the operator about higher ambient radiation.
