This product uses a Geiger-Miller counter.Counter for detecting the
intensity of ionizing radiation (beta particles, gamma rays and
x-rays).Use a gas tube or a small chamber as a probe.When the voltage
applied to the probe reaches a certain range.Each time the ray is ionized
in the tube to produce a pair of ions, it can be amplified to produce an
electric pulse of the same size.And recorded by the connected electronic
device.The number of rays per unit time thus measured.The alarm
threshold measurement rate can be arbitrarily selected.

6. Conversion of radioactive units
①International Standards (1990)
1μSv/h=100μR/h 1nc/kg.h=4μR/h
1μR=1γ(The unit used for prospecting in the pronuclear industry)
Radioactivity:
1Ci=1000mCi
1mCi=1000μci
1Ci=3.7×1010Bq =37GBq
1mCi=3.7×107Bq =37MBq
1μCi=3.7×104Bq=37KBq
1Bq=2.703×10-11Ci=27.03pci
Exposure:
1R=103mR=106μR
1R=2.58×10-4c/kg
Absorption metering:
1Gy=103mGy=106μGy
1Gy=100rad 100μrad=1μGy
Metering equivalent:
1Sv=103mSv=106μSv
1Sv=100rem 100μrem=1μSv
Other:
1Sv is equivalent to 1Gy 1g radium=0.97Ci≈1Ci
Radon unit:
1Bq/L=0.27em=0.27×10-10Ci/L
②Unit conversion
07

Radon unit:
1Bq/L=0.27em=0.27×10-10Ci/L
7.NOTE
A=A0eλ-t t=T1/2 ；
A0 The known source strength A is how much time has elapsed,According
to the radioactive decay calculation table look-up table calculation.
The intensity of the radioactive source is inversely proportional to
the square of the distance.
X=A.г/R2A: The activity of the point source;R: Distance from source;
г: Exposure rate constant
Note: Ra-226 (t 1608) г=0.825 ren. m2/hour. Curie
Cs—137 (t 29.9 years) г= 0.33 ren. m2/hour. Curie
Co—60 (t 5.23 years) г=1.32 ren. m2/hour. Curie
Nuclear radiation detectors are sophisticated instruments.Please be
careful.The following recommendations will facilitate instrument mainte-
nance and prolong life.
According to the radioactive decay calculation table, look
up the table to calculate the radioactive shielding:
③Calculation of radioisotope decay values
④The relationship between radioactive source and distance

ing materials in an environmentally friendly manner.
●Please shut down in time when not in use for a long time
●Dont disassemble or replace components without permission to avoid
failure.
●Please store in a dry place when not in use.
①Keep as dry as possible during storage and use.Excessive humidity can
cause malfunction and damage to the instrument.
②Please dont use the instrument violently or rudely, prevent dropping,
knocking and violent vibration of the instrument.Otherwise, the
instrument will be damaged.
③ When the power display is too low, it is in an undervoltage state and
should be charged in time.In case of serious undervoltage, the instrument
can not be turned on and off, and abnormal phenomena such as blurred
screen occur.
