Features :

RADAX SM 5000 is a Digital Handheld Radiation Survey meter to detect Gamma and X-

ray radiation.

With RADAX SM 5000 you can:

Detect and Monitor Gamma radiation from Radio-active materials and X-ray

machines.

Check for leakage radiation

RADAX SM5000 uses a Geiger-Mueller (GM) detector tube to detect radiation. The GM

Tube contains ionization gas which generates pulse of electrical current when radiations

pass through the gas and causes ionization. These electrical pulses are counted

electronically and are termed as counts per minute (CPM) or they are displayed in milli-

roentgens per hour (mR/Hr). In SI units, the pulses are counted per second ( CPS) or micro-

Sieverts per hour (µSv/Hr).

RADAX SM5000 displays radiation level detected in both mR/hr and µSv/hr,

simultaneously on its LCD display. The Digital survey meter is based on micro-controller

technology and simple to use.

Operation :

There are two touch switches on the Survey meter. Power & Enter switch and Setting switch. Press Power switch and keep

pressed till display is on. Display will show reading in mR/Hr & µSv/Hr. Bring the Survey-meter near the Radiation source

with the Detector sign pointing towards the Radiation source. The survey meter will display the reading in both mR/Hr and

µSv/Hr.

While detecting the radiation, the audio buzzer gives out chirping sound. At low level radiation, the frequency of chips is

low. As the radiation level increases, the chirps become more frequent. At very high radiation or very near the source, the

chirping turns in to a whistling sound.

The buzzer can be switched off when required. Press the Setting switch and keep pressed. Select option Buzzer On, Press

Power/Enter switch to save the setting. To switch off Buzzer, select Buzzer Off option. To switch off the Survey meter, press

power switch and keep pressed till Power Off sign appears.
