The Model 3003 is a durable, lightweight instrument designed for alpha, beta, gamma, or neutron radiation survey. It can support up to four external detectors, each with its own set of calibration and user parameters. The Model 3003i is a version that includes an internal GM or scintillation detector. The instrument features a large, easy-to-read LCD screen and audible alarms and is controlled using a simple seven-button interface. The unit body is made of high-impact plastic and splash resistant construction allows the instrument to be used outdoors.
Four modes of operation are available – RATE, MAX, INTG, 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, MAX, and DOSE modes, unless alpha-beta detection is selected. The user can switch between the two sets of units by pressing the UNITS button. The DETECTOR button is used to switch between the active detector settings, indicated by the colored LEDs above the control buttons. When enabled with the 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. The SCA ability allows a scintillator or proportional detector to be set up with an upper window, giving it higher sensitivity to a specific isotope or region. This instrument can be used with external alpha-beta detectors to display alpha, beta, or alpha+beta counts.
Instrument setup can be done either through the front-panel controls or via the Lumic Calibration Kit (see Options). The Model 3003 is shipped ready to use with batteries and calibration certificate.
