FEATURES
- ALPHA, BETA, GAMMA DETECTION
- RUGGED METAL HOUSING
- COMPATIBLE WITH ALL JOHNSON
- RATE METERS
The HP-265, commonly known as the “Pancake” probe, has become the most popular detector for the general measurement of Alpha, Beta, and Gamma measurements. Built inside a ruggedized housing, this detector is the best general detector for most types of measurement applications. This detector operates between 850 to 1000 volts and is compatible with any Johnson instrument capable of supplying 900 Vdc.
