REMOTE READING INSTRUMENT FOR FALLOUT SHELTERS

Abstract

Results are presented of efforts to develop a simple low-cost remote reading ratemeter with a gamma range to 1000 r/hr for use with small fallout shelters. The design objective will be low cost, small size, light weight, ease of calibration, simplicity of operation, reasonable ruggedness and long shelf life. Remote capability to 100 feet is desired.
