The AMP series of GM based Area Monitors offer a selection of dose rate ranges covering 0.1 µSv/h - 150 Sv/h. The waterproof probe can be used to depths of 20 meters with detector cable lengths of over 100 meters. The instrument consists of three parts: the Monitor; which includes the display unit, operating pushbuttons and detector’s electronics; the probe containing the GM Tube; and the connecting cable fitted with quick-connect-type connectors at each end. The AMP-50’s connections and probe feature watertight sealing to allow for use in underwater applications.

Applications include:

Radioactive liquid waste tank monitoring
Facility & site boundary surveillance
Emergency Response
Control shipping of radioactive material
Outdoor area monitoring
Underwater surveys
