Introduction |

● Alpha, Beta, Gamma Floor Radiation Monitor
● 425 cm2 Gas Proportional Detector
● Utilizes Ludlum Model 2350-1 Digital Ratemeter/Scaler/Logger
● 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 2350-1 for additional detail.
