2 Features
The Inspector+ measures alpha, beta, gamma, and x-ray radiation. It is optimized
to detect small changes in radiation levels and to have high sensitivity to many
common radionuclides. For more information, see Appendix A, "Sensitivity to
Common Radionuclides."
This chapter briefly describes the Inspector+'s functions. For more information on
how to use the Inspector+, see Chapter 3, "Operation."
The Inspector+ counts ionizing events and displays the results on the liquid crystal
display (LCD). You control which unit of measurement is shown by using the
mode switch.
Whenever the Inspector+ is operating, the red count light (8) flashes each time a
count (an ionizing event) is detected.
