FML-9W-GM Radiation Area Monitor

Wide Range Beta Gamma Area Monitor

FML-9W-G-M wide range beta gamma area monitor, for high rrang radiation

Ideal for monitoring nuclear reactors, hot cells, and irradiators

The FML-9W-GM integrates a digital alarm ratemeter, power supply, alarm, amplifier, choice of rack or case, and reliable radiation detector. The unit features plug-in modular construction which allows additional channels and functions to be added. GM detectors and circuit design prevent the system readings from falling, even in extremely high fields. Front panel controls allow the alarm set point to be displayed. Alarm activation produces flashing red light on front panel and piercing intermittent 2000Hz tone. An optional  relay can be closed open for activation of remote alarms. An optional: stand-by battery power available, as well.
