Model 3000

The Ludlum Model 3000 is a durable, lightweight instrument that is used with an external detector for alpha, beta, and gamma radiation survey. It features a large, easy-to-read LCD screen and audible alarms and is controlled using a simple five-button interface. The unit body is made of high-impact plastic, and splash-resistant construction allows the instrument to be used outdoors.

Three modes of operation are available – RATE, MAX, and COUNT – which can be selected by pressing the MODE button. Measurements can be collected in two sets of units (primary and secondary) for RATE and MAX modes in cps, cpm, Bq, dpm, mR/hr, or µSv/h units. The user can switch between two sets of chosen units by pressing the UNITS button. When enabled with the optional Lumic Data Logger Kit (see Options), data can be logged in any of the operational modes using the LOG button on the handle. Up to 1000 data points can be stored internally.

Instrument setup can be done either through the front-panel controls or via the Lumic Calibration Kit (see Options). The Model 3000 is shipped ready to use with batteries and calibration certificate.
