• Ionizing radiation metrology
• Nuclear medicine
• Non‑nuclear industry
• Homeland security

Key Features

• Gasless scintillation detector
• Compact, lightweight and resistant design
• User‑friendly interface, ease of use
• High sensitivity with uniform response
• Fast selection from stored measurement presets
• Two settable alarm levels
• Fast replacement of light‑tight foil
• Optional ambient dose rate measurement

Description
The PAM-100 series are portable handheld activity meters designed for surface contamination monitoring. Models A, B and C have suppressed gamma sensitivity to allow correct discrimination of alpha and/or beta contamination where gamma background is low to moderate. Models B and C are specifically suitable for environments with elevated and variable gamma background (e.g., nuclear power plants). Monitor models D and E provide increased gamma sensitivity where required.
