Overview
Reliable and rugged handheld radiation detector with “Search
and Find” capability
The RC2 portable radiation detector has been designed to
detect very low radiation intensity levels from radioactive
materials
buried in scrap metal. The RC2 is an extremely effective
handheld detector that utilizes a large 32 cu.in. (0.54L)
internal
PVT plastic scintillation detector, the same material found
in most larger vehicle monitoring systems.

Features and benefits
Operation of the
RC2 is fully automatic and designed to allow fast and easy
inspection of areas, containers or vehicles that may contain
radioactive materials, or to verify or separate radioactive
materials that have triggered an alarm on large scale radiation
detection systems. The RC2 contains a state-of-the-art microprocessor
and internal electric circuitry designed to automatically
set the lowest achievable alarm level and to continuously
monitor system operation in order to maintain consistent optimum
performance.
In
the event that radiation is detected, a varying audio tone
will activate to help locate the source of the radiation.
In addition, the display will show an increasing count/second
(cps) numeric radiation level. The RC2 is equipped with an
internal rechargeable battery pack that eliminates the need
for stocking and changing conventional batteries. There are
also three warning condition indicators for «Low Battery»,
«Change Batteries Now», and «Over Range»,
when the measured radiation exceeds the dynamic range (saturation)
of the system.
