1.
Initiate a search for the source starting at the location
where
the gauge was last used.
2. Report lost or missing radioactive sources to your state or
federal radiation control agency in accordance with
applicable regulatory requirements.
3. Contact the Troxler Radiation Safety Department for further
advice.
Gauge Readings Appear Erratic
1. Ensure that the source rod is properly positioned in the
desired measurement position.
2. Ensure that the gauge is not wet.
3. Check count time – a four-minute count gives the highest
precision.
4. Perform a statistical stability (stat) test.
If test passes, proceed with job.
If test fails, repeat two more times. If test fails two out of
three times, contact the nearest Troxler Service Center.
Gauge Turns off after it is Turned On
1. The gauge automatically turns off after five hours if no keys
are pressed. Try to turn the gauge on again.
2. The gauge may be wet. Do not turn the gauge on until the
gauge is completely dry, as component damage may
result.
3. If the battery is below 5.5 volts, recharge or replace the
batteries.
