RadComm RC2 Portable Radiation Detector
Reliable and rugged handheld radiation detector with "Search and Find" capability.
The RC2 portable radiation detector has been designed to detect very low radiation intensity levels from radioactive materials buried in scrap metal. The RC2 is an extremely effective handheld detector that utilizes a large 32 cu.in. (0.54L) internal PVT plastic scintillation detector, the same material found in most larger vehicle monitoring systems.
Operation of the RC2 is fully automatic and designed to allow fast and easy inspection of areas, containers or vehicles that may contain radioactive materials, or to verify or separate radioactive materials that have triggered an alarm on large scale radiation detection systems. The RC2 contains a state-of-the-art microprocessor and internal electric circuitry designed to automatically set the lowest achievable alarm level and to continuously monitor system operation in order to maintain consistent optimum performance.
In the event that radiation is detected, a varying audio tone will activate to help locate the source of the radiation. In addition, the display will show an increasing count/second (cps) numeric radiation level. The RC2 is equipped with an internal rechargeable battery pack that eliminates the need for stocking and changing conventional batteries. There are also three warning condition indicators for «Low Battery», «Change Batteries Now», and «Over Range», when the measured radiation exceeds the dynamic range (saturation) of the system.
