7. Overload
The overload can be triggered by measured values indicating that
the probe may be subject to an excessive radiation field:
a) Count rate
Overload is triggered if the measured count rate (after dead time
correction) exceeds the overload count rate as set for the selected
external probe (see chapter 8-13, probe configuration).
b) Power consumption of high voltage generator
Overload is triggered if the measured power indicator exceeds the
overload value as set for the selected external probe (see chapter
8-13, probe configuration). Thus overload is indicated as well e.g.
for a short circuit in the cable or detector.
c) Signal pulse height
RadEye GX units with serial no. from #xxxx additionally monitor
a degradation of the pulse height caused by excessive dose rate.
