OPTIONS

Keyboard and memory card option: the operator can add

comments for each sample, save it on the memory card and

then transfer it on his offi ce PC

DC option: powered from 10-36V dc. Suitable for portable

use on trolleys or in cars/trucks

The NT200 can also measure paper fi lters samples from an air-sampling
pump. The operator can select between four preset air volumes. The
result is displayed in Bq/m³.

The NT200 calibration is done
very easily with an automated
procedure.The activity of the
reference source, the measuring
time and the step high voltage
for the plates must be selected.
The NT200 automatically selects
the start and stop high voltage
and computes the detector res-
ponse curve which is displayed
in real time on the screen.
