Introduction Product Description Section 1 Introduction 1.1 Product Description The Primalert® 35 Area Radiation Monitor provides reliable, continuous monitoring of radioactive materials. Six front panel, color-coded LED's (1, 2, 4, 8,16, and 32 mR/h) indicate an increase or decrease in radiation level. The LED for each level lights as the radiation reaches that level and goes out as the radiation drops below that level.
