Description

The CM 250SP unit allows an easy and accurate control of alpha hand contamination for the personnel who works in a controlled area. This unit is presented as a compact, self-contained instrument including the detector, a processing hardware, a LCD display and visual and audible alarms. The case can be used on a desktop or wall mounted. A four-button keypad allows parameter definition and operation control through a user- friendly software.
