INTRODUCTION
The HPI model REM 500 is a small lightweight Neutron Survey Meter. It eliminates the need for a large heavy moderator by measuring the neutrons with a Tissue Equivalent Proportional Counter (TEPC) combined with a 256 channel multichannel analyzer. The instrument applies the appropriate ICRU/P quality factors to each neutron event which results in a true REM response. The REM 500 has all the convenience of a microprocessor based instrument including an alphanumeric display, softkeys, and front panel calibration. It is an easy to use instrument with on screen menus directing the user to the various functions. The display autoranges through a full 7 decades on both RADs and REMs. It has both a rate and integrate mode. The integrate range also displays the integration time in hrs/min/sec. A built in optional check source verifies correct operation and detector calibration. The detector is sealed; this design has been used in the field for over 10 years. The aluminum case is rugged and gasketed. Battery access is through a cover on the end of the case. The Battery life is 100 hours on 6 C cells. The REM 500 Neutron Survey Meter is the ideal instrument to measure neutrons both in the lab or in the field. Specifications Detector |
