Introduction |

● Alpha, Beta, Gamma Floor Radiation Monitor
● 425 cm2 Gas Proportional Detector
● Utilizes Ludlum Model 2221 Analog Ratemeter/Digital Scaler
● Adjustable Detector Height
● Efficiency: 239Pu - 17%, 90Sr90Y - 25%, Gamma < 1%
The Model 239-1F Floor Radiation Monitor is an alpha beta gamma radiation gas proportional floor monitor detector mounted on a roll-around cart. The instrument features a flow system, quick-connects, a gas bottle mount, and a means to adjust the height of the detector from the floor for optimum performance. A nuclear counting gas bottle, gas regulator, and a survey instrument are required for the operation of the floor monitor. This unit is supplied with the Model 12 Analog Radiation Survey Meter. Refer to the Model 2221 for additional detail.
