Echo
Contamination meter with high and flutuating gamma background dynamic deduction
Designed in partnership with CNRS, Echo measures and detects the beta contamination in harsh radiological environment. It is perfectly suitable to contaminated area exit. It displays the detection limit and control the speed and the distance to insure a efficient measurement. Several working modes allows detection and direct or indirect measurement.
