Gamma Ionization Chamber
The ionization chambers series KG 80 PED/PEF have
been developed for gamma dose rate monitoring
under extreme conditions. There is a check volume
integrated in the detector housing which enables
remote testing without access to the location of the
detector.
Gamma radiation produces charged particles in the
gas fi lling of the ionization chamber.
The transportation of these charged particles in the
electrical fi eld and their discharge on the electrodes
causes charge pulses.
The charge pulses are integrated to a DC current,
which can be measured in the external circuit.
APPLICATIONS
• Radioprotection of workers
○ Measurement of medium and high dose rates
for harsh environment and locations with diffi cult
access
• Operational process monitoring
