The LB 124 SCINT series of Contamination Monitors are versatile and flexible instruments for practical radiation protection applications. They can be employed wherever contamination caused by radiation substances is encountered and has to be monitored:

• In nuclear medicine
• Research
• Nuclear power plants
• In decommissioning of nuclear facilities and disposal of nuclear waste
• In environmental monitoring

The instruments are used to measure radioactive alpha and beta-gamma contaminations on surfaces such as floors, walls, desks, objects, clothing or skin. The contamination monitors are contamination monitors based on scintillation technology. The benefits are:

• Simultaneous and separate measurement of alpha and beta-gamma contaminations
• Measurement of gamma dose rate (only for LB 124 SCINT-D)
• High sensitivity and uniform response
• No counting gas required
• Lightweight, easy to handle and rugged instrument
• Wide temperature range

The Contamination Monitors are portable battery-powered instruments. It is comprised of a display unit with microprocessor electronics, signal processing electronics and a ZnS scintillator with a photomultiplier.
