Description

A compact search device with telescopic tube for quick detection and localization of gamma and beta radiation sources.

5 seconds are enough for quick evaluation of gamma background with 4 built-in Geiger-Muller counters. A big display with luminescent backlight simultaneously indicates units of measurement, measurement errors, threshold level and real time. Analog indicator of radiation intensity facilitates localization of radiation sources. The device has a built-in memory for 1200 measurements and 999 objects of inspection.

STORA-TU can also transfer measurement results to smartphones and tablets running Android OS in real time. With the help of GS Ecotest application this information is processed, displayed in a user-friendly way and stored in a special database. The GS Ecotest application can be downloaded from Google Play for free.

Measurement results can also be transferred to a personal computer through the Bluetooth channel.

New software “RadReader” has been developed for operation with the STORA-TU dosimeter-radiometer.

Purpose of Use

  • Measurement of gamma and X-ray radiation ambient dose equivalent rate (DER).

  • Measurement of surface beta-particles flux density.

  • Real time and date display, alarm clock function.

Features

  • Damp and dustproof body IP54.

  • Big display with luminescent backlight.

  • Simultaneous indication of measurement units, measurement errors, threshold level and real time.

  • Analog twelve-segment indicator of registered radiation intensity.

  • Ability to perform measurements with a preset error.

  • Four-level indication of battery discharge.

  • Built-in memory which allows storing up to 1200 measurements and 999 numbers of the measured objects with ability to view the recorded information on the display of the device.

  • Mode of PC connection via Bluetooth.

  • Three independent measuring channels with alternate indication of data on the single liquid crystal display.

  • Prompt evaluation of gamma background within 5 seconds.

  • Automatic subtraction of gamma background at measurement of beta contamination.

  • Four built-in gamma, beta sensitive Geiger-Muller counters.

  • Automatic setting of measurement intervals and ranges.

  • Audio signaling of each detected gamma-quantum and beta-particle that can be switched off.

  • Two-tone audio alarm of exceeded programmed threshold levels.

  • Operation with telescopic tube.

  • Two AAA batteries.
