Imagesco™ GCA-06W Professional Digital Geiger Counter with External Wand is an easy to use, handheld personal nuclear radiation detector. The external wand makes it easier to search materials and surfaces for radioactivity, while the LCD provides a current count, and radiation level readout

  • The GCA-06W Professional Digital Geiger Counter with External Wand is a handheld personal nuclear radiation detector with a proven track record for detecting nuclear radiation in hospitals, medical research, industrial settings, transport containers, topsoil, granite tabletops, scrap metal, oil fields, objects and interior spaces.
  • The external wand makes it easier to search materials and surfaces for radioactivity.
  • COUNTING RESOLUTION AND RANGE: 1 Count Per Minute (CPM) - 10000 Counts Per Second (CPS)
  • RADIATION RESOLUTION AND RANGE: 0.001 mR/hr resolution / 1000 mR/hr Range (Imperial measurements); 0.01 uSv/hr resolution - 10 mSv/hr range (Metric)
  • Detector Sensitivity: Alpha radiation above 3 MeV, Beta above 50 KeV, X-Rays and Gamma above 7 KeV. The external wand makes it easier to test and measure radioactivity in materials. Contains LND 712 Geiger Mueller (GM) Tube detector, which is Ne + Halogen filled; has a 0.38 in. effective diameter and a 1.5-2.0 mg/cm2 mica end window.
  • Has the ability to detect a broad spectrum of nuclear radiation, including low energy background radiation and radiation emitted from Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM).
  • Easy to read LCD is a 2 line by 16 characters that provides a current count and radiation level readout. Simple front panel instrument controls make the Geiger Counter easy to use. Toggle switches control all the front panel options.
  • User can select a time period, type of measurements (Imperial or Metric). Measurements (counts per second) are converted into radiation levels (mR/hr or mSv/hr). Time selection switch allows Counts Per Second (CPS) or Counts Per Minute (CPM) mode.
  • Factory calibrated using a NIST traceable source to insure measurements. NRC certification is available at additional cost from the manufacturer. The NRC certification certifies the Geiger Counter has passed ANSI-STD N323A calibration using a NIST traceable source from an independent US licensed laboratory conforming to United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission NRC regulations 10-CFR-34 and 10-CFR-35 standards (available at additional costs through the manufacturer).
  • Suitable for regulatory inspections. USA Tech Support. Assembled in the USA.
  • Options: Jack for Headphones or External Speaker. External Power Supply included. 3.5 mm Data Port for WIN PC and microcontroller interface. The WIN PC program requires optional 3.5 mm to USB data cable. Secondary indicators: audio (clicks) and visual (LED) included. 9 V battery (mobile operation) not included.
