Rotem Amp-100
Low Range Area Monitor
The AMP-100 is a GM Tube-based rate meter designed specifically to be used in high dose rate fields. The AMP-100’s detector features linear response from 50 µSv/h to 10 Sv/h (5 mR/h to 1,000 R/h). A replacement of traditionally “difficult to calibrate” underwater instruments, providing real-time, remote monitoring in geometries developed for extendible “pole” rate meters (TelePole, Teletector,etc).
