Model 26-3
The Ludlum Model 26-3 incorporates electronics and a time-tested GM detector in an ergonomically designed, ruggedly-constructed, and water-resistant housing. The integrated instrument is cable-less thereby simplifying the process of frisking people and objects. The optimized configuration includes a standard 15.51 cm2 GM pancake, loud audible “click” output, and large auto-ranging LCD display with automatic LCD backlighting. Model 26-3 has the addition of a Units button that can display measurements in terms of mR/hr, µSv/h, dpm, or Bq. These features are combined in one convenient package making it easier than ever to detect alpha/beta contamination and measure gamma fields on personnel and objects.
Operation of the Model 26-3 is kept simple through the use of just three buttons that are strategically placed for one-handed operation. Three modes of operation RATE, MAX, and COUNT, are available. The RATE mode will display current radiation levels in terms of rate. MAX mode captures the highest rate detected so it is possible to determine a peak rate during frisking operations when the display is not visible. COUNT mode allows the operator to perform a survey for a predetermined time. The user-selected units can display results in a measurement of scaler counts, activity (disintegrations), time-averaged rates, or even accumulated dose. An optional Ambient Dose Filter to correct the energy response is available (part number 2002-1050).
Low-power circuitry means two standard “AA” sized batteries deliver hundreds of hours of instrument operation. The parameters may be protected via internal dipswitch, or the calibrator may allow the user to adjust them. Other features include a backlight triggered by low-level ambient lighting (may be configured for “Continuous On” operation) and a click audio that may be silenced for both RATE and MAX modes.

Headphone Jack
This modification for survey meters adds a headphone jack to the instrument body so headphones can be used to monitor click-per-event audio and audio alarms. Headphones are helpful when the instrument is being used in areas with high ambient noise levels or in areas where the audio would be distracting to others, such as in a medical or office environment.
Shoulder Strap
This 1.8 m (6 ft) adjustable shoulder strap is a great way to keep your hands free while operating survey meters. The nylon strap with a wide rubber comfort pad can also be helpful for conveying some of the heavier instrument/detector combinations in the field.

Cables
Ludlum offers straight cables with either type C, BNC, SHV, MHV, or UHF connectors. Unless specified otherwise, Ludlum survey meters and detectors are shipped with “C” type connectors. When a meter and accompanying probe are ordered as a matched set, Ludlum automatically includes a 99 cm (39 in.) straight-type cable with “C” connectors at no additional charge. (Note: We no longer offer coiled cables.)
