Product Information

This low-cost, portable unit instantly measures levels of harmful beta, gamma, and X radiations on its compressed scale meter.
It features a halogen-quenched stainless steel detector, Cesium-137 beta shielded calibration source, and a range of 0-10 mR/Hr (logarithmic). The unit measures 17 cm x 8 cm x 3.5 cm and operates on a 9 V battery (provided).


All Geiger counters sold by VWR Education Companies are for educational purposes only. They will measure different types of radiation including alpha, beta, gamma, and X-rays, but they should not be used for any health, safety or medical purposes, or to determine a human being's safety in an area that is suspected of radiation exposure.

We recommend that customers reference the World Health Organization (WHO) for the most up to date information surrounding the situation in Japan.

Our Geiger counters will detect different types of radiation, but unless you know how to properly calibrate them and interpret the data, these Geiger counters should not be used to determine safe or unsafe levels of radiation exposure.

Please let us know if you have any questions.
