3 USE OF THE DEVICE
3.1 Preparation for use
3.1.1 General information
3.1.1.1 When buying the device please check the delivery kit according to clause 2.2.1
and perform the device operation check up according to clause 3.1.4.
The device should not be subjected to severe mechanical shocks, any strong chemicals
and solvents and open fire sources.
3.1.2 Safety precautions
3.1.2.1 During the device assembling, calibration, repair and maintenance when
radioactive sources are used, all the requirements and regulations ensuring the radiation and
sanitary safety should be observed.
3.1.2.2 The beta radiation source IBIRRZN-63-IIa, 7016-056-41805307-2002 which is
included in the ionization chamber contains the
63
Ni radionuclide of 0.6 GBq activity. This
source is located inside of the ionizing chamber in the device housing.
3.1.2.3 The beta radiation DER does not exceed the natural background level at any
point of the outer surface of the package with the device inside. The device design excludes the
possibility of the access to the source during device operation. Therefore it is not necessary to
take any additional safety precautions actions for radiation security.
3.1.3 Preparation for operation
3.1.3.1 Before using the device, please read this operating manual carefully.
3.1.3.2 Take the device from the package.
3.1.3.3 Insert the batteries into the battery compartment 11 (Figure 2).
3.1.3.4 Remove cap 15 from the connecting pipe of the ionizing chamber 2 and the
output connecting pipe 10.
3.1.3.5 Screw cap 15 on the connecting pipe at a plug 1, and put cap 10 of the output
connecting pipe into SET-O.
3.1.3.6 When starting the operation after the long storage of the device, it is required to clean
the gas system and the ionizing chamber in according to clause 4.4 of the present Manual.
3.1.3.7 Calibrate the device according to clause 3.2.1.2. After calibration completion the
device is ready for operation
3.1.4 The device operation checking
3.1.4.1 After device calibration according to clause 3.2.1 it is necessary to check up the
device operation. After calibration completion, the Green-LED should light constantly and a
sound of the working micropump should be heard.
To check up the chemical channel operation, bring the imitator from the SET-O (set of
the spare parts and tools) to the input of the ionizing chamber. The light alarm (Red-LED)
should flash and audio alarm will be heard. Remove the imitator. The light and audio alarms will
be switched OFF in no more than 30 s.
Caution! When checking up the chemical channel operation with the imitator from
the SET-O in enclosed space it is necessary to provide the blowout from the output
connecting pipe outdoors (exhaust ventilation). Before the iterative checking up it is
necessary to blow out the gas system through the TSM filter for 10-20 minutes
To check up the radiation channel, bring a radioactive source (its energy range is from
0.06 to 3.0 MeV) close to the GMM geometrical center 13 (Figure 2). The light alarm (Yellow-
LED) will flash and audio alarm will be heard. Remove the source. The light and audio alarms
will be switched OFF for no more than 30 s.
To turn the device OFF, press the button 8. The Green-LED 6 and the micropump should
be switched OFF.
