   Product Detail


The Min-Alert is a free standing or installed radiation monitor for use in the external beam of high-dose intra-cavity radiotherapy installations or in high energy X-Ray or Gamma non-destructive testing bays.

Features

  • Available in two parts: main unit (7-20) and optional remote unit (7-21)
  • 7-20 supplied with a mains cable; 7-21 supplied with a 10m multi-way shielded cable so the unit can be placed outside the indicated area
  • Simple to install and use – no user controls
  • Emitted sound is not intended to alarm, but to warn that an exposure is taking place
  • Low power consumption (approximately 5 watts)
  • As a safety feature, both units contain a trickle-charged battery that sustains operation during a mains failure
  • Manufactured from tough plastic, internally treated to reduce the effect of interfering electromagnetic (EM) radiation
  • Complies with IEC 1010 safety standard to Protection Class 1, and European office and light industrial (Hospital) EMC requirements
