Radiological monitor MRS 110B-1 Manual

AMES d.o.o. Jamova 39, Ljubljana, Slovenia
It is to be mentioned that MRS 110B-1 gives the exact values of dose rate,
measured in µSv/h, only for the photon energy that was used as the calibration
source. For all other photon energies, the measuring error due to the energy
nonlinearity of the GM tube should be taken into the consideration.
Results of measurements are, together with the selected measuring unit,
shown on the liquid crystal display. Each detected pulse is heard as an
audible signal. Different sounding reports, that the dose rate has exceeded
the predetermined alarm level. Procedure, how to set the alarm level, is
described further in this Manual.
1.1 TYPE OF DETECTED RADIATION
If the side of MRS 110B-1, where the GM tube is mounted (marked with the
red dot), is close to the source, instrument detects all three sorts of radiation.
Otherwise, due to the poor penetration of beta rays, only roentgen and
gamma radiations are detected.
