Gammapilot FMG50
Endress+Hauser 13
General functions
Decay compensation
The automatic decay compensation function of the Gammapilot FMG50 compensates for the
decrease in the activity of the radiation source as a result of radioactive decay. Accurate
measurements are therefore possible over the entire operating time of the radiation source.
The following are possible:
•
60
Co
•
137
Cs
• No decay compensation
• Custom:
Decay indicated in whole days

Gammagraphy detection
The Gammapilot FMG50 has a function to detect short-term interference radiation. This function
displays a message if the measurement is affected by non-destructive gammagraphic material tests
in the vicinity of the measuring point.
Excess radiation: In the event of excess radiation, the Gammapilot FMG50 automatically
switches off the evaluation of the radiation. The device checks the radiation regularly. As soon
as the Gammapilot FMG50 establishes that the radiation has normalized or no more radiation
is detected, it resumes normal operation.
