FLIR Detection
4. FLIR identiFINDER R300 Modes
For best dose rate calculations the source must not be too close to the instrument (Figure
239
,
p.
242
).
The dose rate display (Figure
87
, p.
86
) shows two representations of the gamma dose rate:
Analog
A colored horizontal bar along a logarithmic axis ranging from 0.001 µSv/h to 10 Sv/h
(
1 Sv = 100 rem
) across the upper part of the screen.
A vertical line marks the position of dose rate alarm threshold (see
6.33
, p.
161
for setting the
threshold).
If the dose rate rises above the threshold, the color of the bar representing the current dose
rate changes.
Digital
Large digits and a dose rate unit in the screen’s center.
The unit is adjusted to the order of magnitude of the dose rate (µSv/h, mSv/h, Sv/h) and
re lects your preferences (see
6.31
, p.
159
).
If your variant is equipped with a neutron detector, the current neutron rate is shown
below the gamma dose rate.
If the dose rate rises above the overload threshold (see
, p.
), the instrument’s results
are unreliable. This condition is displayed on the screen (Figure
88
, p.
87
).
We strongly recommend that you retreat from environments with radiation that high.
