1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION Ronan, contact Ronan Engineering for detailed shipping instructions. The Ronan Series X90 Point Level Monitor economically A Geiger-Mueller tube is used as the sensor for and reliably solves many process problems in which detecting the gamma radiation. The G-M tube consists of noise, temperature, abrasive or corrosive conditions a gas-filled cylinder with a central anode.
T h e R o n a n Remote Probe (located on vessel) with the X90-301 The Ronan Series X90 gamma switches provide an switch electronics may be located in a general alarm signal whenever the radiation field intensity at the detector changes by more than its predetermined value.
Any access. discrepancies between shipping contents and invoice Not Used should be immediately reported to Ronan or the Ronan representative. Level Alarm Mode: All Series X90 system components (source holder, On=High Level/Off= Low...

Ronan Engineering suggests that a detected radiation indicates a change in process voltmeter with a resistance of at least 20 kohm/V be used for measurement of voltages.
In the majority of Ronan installations, the source is padlocks on all man-way and access port covers is contained in a lead-filled source holder with an ON/OFF acceptable. The key or combination for the locks should mechanism. The holder is designed so that the radiation be kept by the person responsible for radiation safety.
