The LB 1342 scintillator probe for α, β, γ and X-ray radiation is designed with a 170 cm² surface area. The contamination probe has a window foil that is sensitive to mechanical damage, and it is therefore protected by a protective grid. However, everything should be done to avoid the destruction of the window foil such as sharp objects, measurement on rough surfaces, rose bushes, and cat’s paw retractors.

Nevertheless, a damaged LB 1342 detector window foil can easily be replaced by the user. Berthold supplies a foil stretched over a frame as a spare part.

The measuring results are presented on the easy to operate battery Universal Monitor (UMo II) LB 134 with display, data storage and printer output.

Features

• High measuring accuracy
• A precise distinction of radiation types
• High sensitivity even at low energies
• Low costs for the scintillator
• Ease of maintenance
• Unique simultaneous and separate measurement of α and β-y radiation
• The individual types of radiation can be distinguished by means of special evaluation and correlation circuits, and thus separated and measured at the same time.
• No counting gas required
• 118 mm x 145 mm (170 cm²) at the transmission of 80%
• It is protected by a protective grid
• Background: alpha channel approx. 0.1cps, beta channel approx. 15cps
