Dual Analysis Capability
– The ICS-4000 is both a radionuclide identifier and a MicroR and Survey Meter.
An auto-ranging, alarming dose rate meter provides audible and visual
indicators. The dose rate units and alarm levels are user settable. An alarm log
records the time and radiation level each time an alarm is encountered.
Multiple Modes of Operation
- Two modes of operation are provided: Normal and Advanced. In "Normal" mode a
single keystroke begins analysis. "Advanced" Mode provides an expanded feature
set. Spectra can be observed in either mode. All critical setup functions are
password protected. The user interface is intuitive and easy to learn. A help
key opens a window that describes the function of all controls.
Lightweight, Easy to Use
- The ICS-4000 has a LCD with a backlight that is easy to read in dark or
brightly lighted areas. The device keypad uses large tactile keys that can be
operated even with heavy gloves. The ICS-4000 is provided with transparent
waterproof decontamination bags for easy maintenance.
Rugged and Reliable
–- The ICS-4000 is housed in a durable aluminum case that stands up to rigorous
field use. The device operates across the temperature range of -10C - 50C. The
ICS-4000 can run from a rechargeable battery that provides 24 hours of continual
use or can be equipped with a battery pack that utilizes AA commercial off the
shelf batteries.
Easy Access to Data Files
- Onboard flash memory provides non-volatile storage of 300+ of spectra. Stored
data files report the measurement conditions, identified isotopes, dose rate and
integration time. Data files can be uploaded to a PC automatically using the ICS
Explorer file management software.
Multiple Accessories Included
- The ICS-4000 comes standard with a hard carrying case, RS-232 cable,
rechargeable Battery Pack, wall transformer, User Manual and ICS-Explorer software. Also standard are a three year
limited warranty and free software upgrades for the life of the instrument.
Optional accessories include a spare battery, AA battery module, AC power
module, soft carrying case and remote operation software.
