About the Calibration Process

 

CD V-715
High-Range Radiation Survey Meter
[0-500 R/hr range]

The CD V-715 is a high range gamma survey meter intended for general post-nuclear incident operational use. The ranges of this instrument are 0-0.5 R/h, 0-5 R/h, 0-50 R/h and 0-500 R/h.

This instrument was designed for use by radiological monitors in the period following an radiological incident or attack. While the instrument is primarily for surface survey applications, it can serve as supplemental equipment for aerial measurements.

3.25 pounds, die cast aluminum and drawn steel case, watertight, will float. Powered with one D-sized battery, continuously for 150 hours, longer if on intermittent basis.

Instrument accuracy on any of its four ranges is within +- 20% of true dose rate. Accuracy maintained throughout temperature ranges of -20 F to +125 F, relative humidities to 100% and altitudes up to 25,000'

We strongly recommend acquiring a copy of FEMA's 'Radiation Safety In Shelters' along with this device. The book describes the use of this specific instrument in considerable detail and makes an excellent reference manual. The book can be found on our Products page HERE, or free online HERE.
