Description/Abstract:
AECS INSTANT WORKING LEVEL METER FOR USE IN URANIUM MINES TO MEASURE T HE AIRBORNE CONCENTRATION OF RADIOACTIVE PARTICLES IN MINE AIR. THE M ETER WHICH IS LIGHTWEIGHT AND PORTABLE IS EXPECTED TO BE A USEFUL TOOL FOR URANIUM MINE VENTILATION ENGINEERS. IT WAS DEVELOPED FOR THE AEC BY THE MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY. THE PHOTO SHOWS A SAMP LING FILTER FROM THE METER WHICH COLLECTS RADIOACTIVE PARTICLES FOR AN ALYSIS AND MEASUREMENT.
