How to conduct the examination correctly.
At an examination of the radiological situation it is necessary to
remember, that the ionizing radiation has static random character,
therefore the indications of the monitor in identical conditions will
not remain strict stationary values. For more precise definition of a
power level of a dose it is necessary to conduct from 3 up to 5
cycles of inventory, not turning off the device.
At the definition of the radioactive pollution of the food stuff,
household items etc. it is necessary to approximate the monitor to
the object of examination on distance from 5 up to 10 mm by the left
lateral side (with slits) and to turn it on.
At definition radioactive pollution of fluids, the examination of dose
rate is conducted above the unclosed surface of a fluid. The hit of
fluids on a surface and inside the device is not allowed. For the
device protection in similar cases it is recommended to use a
polyethylene package, but no more, than in one layer.
For detection of the location of an ionizing radiation source it is
necessary to move a working device above the surface of examined
object, being oriented on frequency increase of sound signal (in menu
settings: levels - off, audio - on). Remember, that the frequency of
signals as approaching the source will increase sharply, and in
accordance with moving away will decrease in the same manner.
