• Frisking people and objects for alpha & beta contamination has always been a little awkward because manipulation of the cable, detector, and electronics required the use of both hands. The new cable-less Ludlum Model 26 consolidates the electronics and the detector into one ergonomic housing. This optimized configuration incorporates a standard 15 cm² GM pancake probe, loud audio “click” output, and large auto-ranging LCD display with automatic back lighting into one convenient package, making it easier than ever to detect contamination.
• Operation is kept extremely simple through the use of just two buttons. A useful feature employed in the design is the MAX mode, which captures the highest or peak count rate. It is particularly convenient whenever the display is not directly visible. The scaler mode, with a preset count time, allows the user to take a discrete measurement. This system also incorporates low power circuitry, delivering hundreds of hours of use with just two standard “AA” size batteries. The calibrator can protect parameters (cps/cpm, response time, alarm points, & scaler time) or allow the user to adjust them.
