ALMO
Alarm monitor – stationary dose rate monitoring system with external detectors
The ALMO alarm monitors are used to monitor radiation dose rates in the laboratory
production facilities.
The systems consist of a basic device with LCD and electronics, combined with one or more probes and external alarm units.
Depending on the version, it is possible to connect 1, 3 or 6 detectors to the ALMO basic device.
The stand-alone ALMO-systems can be linked to a superior PC-system for central monitoring and documentation.
