Digital Radiation Monitor

Our new Digital Radiation Monitor is sensitive to alpha, beta, gamma, and X-rays. This versatile monitor can be used with LabQuest, LabPro, or CBL 2, or it can be used alone with its built-in timing system. Like our older radiation monitors, this device is based on a Geiger-Mueller tube, but it also includes a digital rate meter.

When used for computer- or LabQuest-based measurements, you can study topics such as radiation statistics, nuclear decay rates, and the effect of shielding on count rates. In addition, you can now use just the Digital Radiation Monitor to measure counts per minute for count durations you can set, all on a free-standing device.

The Digital Radiation Monitor is also our first auto-ID radiation monitor (this feature is available on LabQuest only). It includes a cable for connection to Vernier interfaces and a 9 V battery.
