Model 3-97

The Model 3-97 provides a great solution for locating potential contamination and then accurately measuring the exposure rate, or for simply measuring the ambient exposure levels over a wide range. The instrument is equipped with an internal 2.5 x 2.5 cm (1 x 1 in.) NaI detector that is highly sensitive to gamma, with readings in the μR range between 0 to 3000 μR/hr (0 to 3 mR/hr). The instrument is additionally equipped with an external Model 44-38 energy-compensated GM to extend the detection range up to 200 mR/hr. The ratemeter is Ludlum's venerable Model 3-series, which employs a robust cast aluminum instrument housing with a separate battery compartment for long-lasting protection and instrument life. The front-panel controls include a rotary switch for selecting the 4-decade range, instrument shut-off and battery test, audio on/off switch, fast/slow response switch, count reset button, and internal/external detector switch. The Model 3-97 is a complete turn-key system with the detector cable and two "D" cell batteries.
