Dual Analysis Capability
— The ICS-4000e 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-4000e 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-4000e is provided with transparent
waterproof decontamination bags for easy maintenance.
Rugged and Reliable
— The ICS-4000e is housed in a durable aluminum case that stands up to rigorous
field use. The device operates across the temperature range of 0C — 40C. The
ICS-4000e 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. The ICS-4000r radionuclide identifier provides the same
analytical capabilities, but is designed for remote operation via a PC. This
module does not have an LCD display or buttons, runs from a 9V DC power adapter
and is housed in a NEMA-4 enclosure for fixed installation in or outdoors.
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-4000e is ordered with an external detector and comes standard with a
hard carrying case, RS-232 cable, battery charger, Users 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.
