Part Number - 48-3643

Model 703 Isotope Identifier (shown above)

Part of the Model 700 Series

 


The portable Model 700 radiation Surveillance and Measurement system was developed to give all users what they need – simple operation for the first responder who needs to react quickly, as well as detailed analyses for the technical user. Several modes of operation give all users the information they need right at their fingertips.


Upon power-up, the unit goes through a quick self-test and immediately begins monitoring; even after a lengthy power-down, temperature stabilization guarantees accurate identification results within the first five minutes. Manual recalibration is rarely required.


The Model 700 builds on the proprietary time-slicing and Quadratic Compression (QCC) techniques of its predecessors with new pattern-recognition algorithms to give fast and accurate identification even for difficult isotopes.
