470A PANORAMIC SURVEY METER

  • Cutie pie style with tripod for long term monitoring
  • Low level radiation monitoring for
    diagnostic x-ray and radiotherapy
  • Measures all energies over 2 pi solid
    angle
  • Collimator provided for directional
    identification
  • Twelve overlapping rate ranges from
    3 mR/h to 1000 R/h full scale
  • Energy corrected from 8.0 keV to
    2.0 MeV
  • Integrated exposures from 3 to 1000 mR full scale

The Model 470A has a very low energy response (down to 10 keV), making it ideal for diagnostic x-ray suites, including mammography. Since this meter can measure up to 1000 R/h, it is also ideal for radiotherapy facilities.

The Cutie Pie style of this meter allows it to sit on three legs for long-term monitoring or to be used as a hand-held survey meter with the convenient grip handle. A natural uranium Check Source mounted on end cap.

 

470A Panoramic Survey Meter

The Model 470A is popular in health physics instrumentation. Solid state IC technology is utilized to simplify circuitry, reduce weight and increase reliability. Designed to provide the user with convenience as well as measurement accuracy, the Model 470A has numerous applications in the health physics field. Certainly its outstanding features will suggest many other areas beside diagnostic x-ray and radiotherapy suites where it can be used to great advantage.
