The Ludlum
Model 14C-RK Radiation Emergency Response Kit packages all the basic radiation
measurement tools you are likely to need to handle a radiological emergency into
a convenient carrying case to facilitate a quick response when required. The kit
includes Ludlum's robust and versatile
Model 14C
Radiation Survey Meter, which houses an
internal energy compensated GM tube to perform gamma radiation exposure rate
measurements up to 2000 mR/hr. Responders can either plug in the external
Model 44-9 alpha-beta-gamma radiation GM pancake
detector
for contamination measurements or the
Model 44-2 high-sensitivity gamma radiation scintillator
for locating the source of the high readings. The carrying case supplied with
the kit is air- and water- tight with cutouts for each device including a
137Cs
radioactive check source to verify proper operation of the equipment. Compare
with
the
Model 2241-2RK
and
Model 2241-3RK
Radiation
Emergency Response Kits which offer additional capability.
