STS Survey Safe Simulated Survey Meter
The STS Survey-Safe simulator is a simulated radiation survey meter designed to aid the tuition of workers in the nuclear industry in safe practices and in understanding the nature and mechanics of ionising radiation.
Key Features & Applications • Operates using an STS radio frequency detection head which detects the presence of a simulated radiation field with the resultant reading displayed on the LCD Display of the instrument. • Features a 65 x 35mm LCD backlit display with easy to operate gloved use buttons for selecting functions and instrument on/off. • The Safe-Series of instruments offer the perfect solution for Radiation Emergency Training, Radiation Safety Training and RPA Training with simple intuitive controls, competitive pricing and low ongoing cost of ownership. • Menu allows users to set various parameters for the instrument including alarm threshold, background rate, backlight and Audio options.
Technical Specifications • Runs off 2 standard AA cells giving an operation time of over 10hrs.
Additional Information • Not designed to be intrinsically safe and therefore should not be used in hazardous environments. • The units are not waterproof and contain delicate and sensitive electronics which may be caused to fail if exposed to moisture. • Units should be stored in a clean and dry environment, batteries should be removed if storing for more than 4 weeks. • Instrument response will be affected by environmental conditions such as the presence of large reflective surfaces, substantial metal structures and variable wall thicknesses. • Survey-Safe uses the Safe-MiniSource as the field generator and will measure the simulated dose according to the proximity and shielding between the dosimeter and source. • Rate of accumulation is determined by the activity level set in the source. Different sources are available to characterise different isotopes and therefore produce a different response from the instrument in terms of dose at a given range.
