Monitor 200 Geiger Counter

This item is temporarily Out of Stock.

The Monitor 200 measures alpha, beta, gamma, and x-rays. Its digital display shows readings in your choice of CPM, CPS, μSv/hr, mR/hr, or in accumulated counts. It has a digital display, a red count light, and a beeper that sounds with each count detected. Other features include an adjustable timer, and selectable alert. With the free Observer USB Software Family, you can set computer alarms, calibrate your instrument, and download your collected data from the internal memory for easy reporting!

Features 

Detector

Halogen-quenched GM tube with thin mica end window. Mica window density 1.5-2.0 mg/cm². Effective window diameter is .360 inch. Side wall is .012 inch thick.

Operating Range

mR/hr - .001 (1µR) to 200 mR/hr µSv/hr - .01 to 2000 CPM - 0 to 235,400 CPS - 0 to 3923 Total Counts - 1 to 9,999,000 counts

Accuracy

Typically ±15% from factory, ±10% (NIST)

Energy Sensitivity

1070 CPM/mR/hr referenced to Cs137 Detects alpha down to 2.5 MeV; typical detection efficiency at 3.6 MeV is greater than 80%. Detects beta at 50 keV with typical 35% detection efficiency. Detects beta at 150 keV with typical 75% detection efficiency. Detects gamma and x-rays down to 10 keV typical through the window, 40 keV minimum through the case.

Anti-Saturation

Readout will OVERRANGE in radiation fields as high as 100 times the maximum reading.

Selectable Alert Set Range

mR/hr .001 - 100 and CPM 1 - 350,000. Pulsating beeper sounds the alert. Adjustable alert levels are used for mR/hr / CPM, and µSv/hr / CPS. 70db @ 1m. Alarm will sound when in Timer Mode when set alarm threshold is reached.

Display

Graphic LCD with Backlight.

Count Light

Red LED flashes with each count.

Audio Indicator

    Internally mounted beeper (can be switched off for silent operation)
