Radiation source container with radiation source insert with manual switch-on and switch-off

The FQG60 source container is designed to hold the radioactive source during radiometric point level detection, continuous level and density measurement. The radiation is emitted almost unattenuated in one direction only, and is damped in all other directions. This guarantees highest safety for the personnel and a reliable measurement.

  • Benefits

    • High safety level thanks to highest classification for the source supplied (DIN 25426/ISO 2919, typically classification C66646) and safe and easy source replacement

    • Reliable measurement due to small-size, lightweight container which provides optimized...

  • Field of application

    Designed to hold the radioactive source during radiometric point level detection, level measurement and density measurement. Radiation is emitted almost unattenuated in one direction only, and is damped in all other directions.

    • Activity: 137Cs to 1.1GBq...
