Beta Ionization Chambers
The ionization chambers series KB 100 have been
developed for high range beta activity monitoring,
e.g. noble gas monitoring. The version KB 100 PEF
has a check volume integrated in the detector hou-
sing which enables remote testing without access to
the location of the detector.
Ionizing radiation produces charged particles in the
gas fi lling of the ionization chamber. The transporta-
tion 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 cir-
cuit.
APPLICATIONS
• Effl uent release monitoring
○ High range beta activity monitoring, e.g. noble gas
monitoring
