The basic instrument is easy to take into use, but it also offers
versatile possibilities to measure other types of radiation
qualities by using external probes. The total Mirion range of
external probes from the Turku and Lamanon manufacturing
sites can be attached to the instrument.
These detectors include the GMP-xx-3 series of gamma and
alpha/beta/gamma probes and GMP-25 alpha/beta/gamma
probe dedicated to RDS-31, additionally the GMP-12 series
gamma probes and the GMP-11/GMP-15 alpha/beta/gamma
probes of Mirion Technologies (RADOS) Oy. In addition, the TGS
gamma contamination, Alpha Wound and Alpha 125 alpha
contamination probes from Mirion Technologies (MGP) of France
can be connected to RDS-31. These various detectors can be
added to the instrument using the additional Cable Adapter
extending the capabilities of the instrument. The use of the
Cable Adapter also provides existing customers an easy and cost
effective way to update their current instruments while
maintaining the existing external detectors.
The meter provides an additional protective function to the user:
while using external probes, the meter is still measuring
simultaneously the dose rate using the detector of the
instrument. This allows the alarm to be triggered in case a too
high dose rate or an accumulated dose is measured.
The RDS-31 is ready for use after the batteries (2 x IEC LR6/AA)
have been installed.
2 Taking the Instrument into Use for the First
Time
2.1 Inserting Batteries
Open the lid of the battery compartment by releasing the fixing
screws with a Pozidriv #1 screwdriver and pull the cap out.
