General Information
1.1 Product Description
The RAD-CHECK™ PLUS (see Figure 1-1) is a battery operated, portable unit which measures the
output radiation of diagnostic x-ray equipment. The exposure is displayed on a 3 1/2 digit liquid crystal
display (LCD) as either:
1. Exposure, in Roentgens (0.001 to 1.999 R) or SI units of milligrays (0.01 to 19.99 mGy).
2. Rate, in Roentgens per minute (0.01 to 19.99 R/min) or Si units of milligrays per minute (0.1 to
199.9 mGy/min).
Radiation is detected with an internal ionization chamber, or with an optional remote ionization chamber
(part number 6000-528 or 6000-529).
The optional detectors consist of an ionization chamber and a 15-foot cable assembly. They are
designed to be used with the RAD-CHECK PLUS for measuring dose and dose rates from diagnostic x-
ray machines. They can also be used with any properly configured charge measuring electrometer.
