Hello, RadSafers! Long time listener / watcher but never poster here
looking for some help. I'm working on a project where there is an
identified need to quantify the external ambient gamma background response
of some analog Eberline particulate, iodine, and noble gas radiation
monitors (early 1980s vintage). I can't seem to find any documentation
listing the background response for the specific models installed in the
field in units of cpm / mR/hr (or similar).
Does anyone have information that can be shared with me regarding the
background response of any of the following configurations:
Particulate Monitor:
Vendor: Eberline
Detector: RDA-3A (Beta Scintillator)
Sample Chamber: SA-1 (Moving Filter Paper)
Interface Box: IB-2 (Operating in Gross Counting Mode)
Analog Display Module: EC2-7 (Capable of Fixed or Variable Background
Subtract)
Noble Gas Monitor:
Vendor: Eberline
Detector: RDA-3A (Beta Scintillator)
Sample Chamber: SA-3
Interface Box: IB-2 (Operating in Gross Counting Mode)
Analog Display Module: EC2-7 (Capable of Fixed or Variable Background
Subtract)
Iodine Monitor:
Vendor: Eberline
Detector: RDA-2A (Gamma Scintillator)
Sample Chamber: SA-2 (Fixed Cartridge)
Interface Box: IB-2 (2 SCA Cards, Automatic Gain Stabilized Mode)
Analog Display Module: EC2-7 (Capable of Fixed or Variable Background
Subtract)
I sincerely apologize if I sent this message before. The previous attempt
didn't appear to go through nor does it show up on the RadSafe Archives
for February 2018.
Thank you in advance!
