    The Primalert 10 monitor is activated when the radiation level exceeds a preset value. The alarm level (2.5 mR/h or 20 mR/h) is selected by means of a slide switch on the front panel. A pair of bright red lamps on the face of the instrument flash a warning and continue to flash until safe conditions are reestablished.
