Analog Geiger Counters are useful for detecting
radioactivity and performing nuclear experiments.
The models GCK-01 and GCK-02 are offered as kits
as well , see Geiger Counter Kits link listed
above. These Geiger Counters primary indicators
are an audio click and an LED blink each time
a radioactive particle is detected.
These models are compatible for the Digital Meter
adapter, RS-232 Adapter and Random Number Generator
Adapter.
The Model GCK-02 has an internal Geiger-Mueller
tube. The model GCK-01 has an external wand that
houses Geiger-Mueller tube (GMT-01) and provides
a easy to use probe for checking radioactivity.
The GM Tube is a Ne + Halogen filled, with a .38”
effective diameter 1.5-2.0 mg/cm2 mica end window.
- Detects alpha above 3.0 MeV.
- Detects beta above 50 KeV.
- Detects gamma above 7 KeV.
The CGK-01A and GCK-02A Geiger Counters have the
following features:
Headphone / Analog Meter Jack
Digital Output -- Provides a TTL logic pulse each time a radioactive
particle is detected. Used to connected to various digital adapters:
Digital Meter
Adapter -- Turns our analog into a accurate
digital geiger counter
RS-232 PC Adapter
(with free Windows Radiation Monitoring Software)
Random
Number Generator - Generate real random numbers
for experiments
External Power Jack

These radiation shields friction fit on the open
end of the Geiger Counter wand. Each shield helps
to block radiation from reaching the internal
GM tube inside the wand.
