indication range at the basic unit 0-20 Kcps
difference between measurement with pulse probes and gamma probes:
- basic unit measures pulse rates instead of dose rates,
- summation of counts instead of dose measurement,
- one pulse respectively pulse rate alarm can be adjusted at the basic unit instead of four dose and dose rate alarm thresholds
temperature range for GM-probes: -30 °C up to +60 °C
temperature range for the Scintillation Probe: -20 °C up to +50 °C (temperature change max. 10 °C/hour)
