The detector of the BAB Aerosol Beacon is a large double-diode silicone detector, 2 x 360 mm². The flow rate of the pump is 8 m³/h.
Its energy range is:
– for α radiation: 2 to 10 MeV
– for β radiation: 80 keV at 2 MeV, artificial adjustable αI
Its measurement range is:
– for α radiation: 10-3 to 5.104 Bq / m³
– for β radiation: 10-2 to 5.104 Bq / m³
