Portable Survey Meters<br />
The <strong>RDS</strong>-<strong>40WE</strong> is a Digital Handheld Dose Rate<br />
Meter designed for use by personnel who may<br />
be exposed to gamma and/or X-ray radiation in<br />
their work. <strong>RDS</strong>-<strong>40WE</strong> provides either sequential<br />
or fi xed dose rate alarming system (values<br />
are programmable by the CSW confi guration<br />
software via IrDA link) and the possibility<br />
to store dose rate events into the histogram<br />
memory of the meter.<br />
The use of the <strong>RDS</strong>-CSW software (<strong>Mirion</strong> product<br />
# 1233-246) is required for downloading the<br />
data into a PC via IrDA port.<br />
<strong>RDS</strong>-<strong>40WE</strong> is microprocessor controlled. The<br />
user interface consists of one push button and<br />
an easy-to-use menu structure that displays<br />
information in the LCD of the meter. The sixdigit<br />
display shows the dose rate and various<br />
messages. Diff erent alarm situations are indicated<br />
by a combination of audio-visual eff ects<br />
in the LCD and a buzzer (dose rate, dose , low<br />
battery, defect, dose rate overfl ow).<br />
