APPLICATION: The DSI-2 Precision Radiation Proximity 
analyzer is small with unprecedented sensitivity and 
accuracy. The DSI-2 is designed specifically for use by 
inspectors and guards, police and hazmat squad to give 
warning in case of illicit or accidental storage or 
transport or radioactive material. Suitable uses are 
for shipment inspectors both in USA and overseas. Also 
power plants, environmental and industrial inspectors 
and steel mills. Also in hospitals, landfills and at 
customs entry and exit points. The DSI-2 is also useful 
as $\mu $R/hr meter.
 

GENERAL DESCRIPTION: Small, portable gamma monitor with 
pocket or belt clip and D-Ring. Digital readout of $\mu $
R/hr. Alarms on radiation level settable down to 
background level.

The DSI-2 alarms at any of 99 preset levels. The DSI-2 
also accurately measures exposure rate. The dose is 
displayed continuously on the digital LCD display. When 
the alarm set-point is reached, the beep is continuous 
until it is reset (front panel button). The DSI-2 
circuitry is completely digital, thus eliminating the 
inaccuracy inherent in any analog circuit. Recessed and 
covered calibration control.
