The AN/PDR-56 is a ZnS alpha scintillator that replaced the AN/PDR-10 alpha air proportional meter for alpha contamination surveys. It has since been replaced by the AN/PDR-77. This example of the IM-160D/PDR-56 was manufactured by …

Portable alpha probe with three units of alpha measurement possible. High-range. Portable, high- and low-range instrument for detecting plutonium contamination by measuring associated X rays and low-energy gamma radiation. Effective in inclement weather and much less subject to damage during field use. Portable, high- and low-range instrument.

Measures 0 - 1,000,000 Counts Per Minute over 4 scales. This unit uses two BA-30 or BA-3030/U ("D" size) 1½ volt batteries, it is complete and working. This Radiac Set was used at Arnold Air Force Base in Tennessee. IM-160F/PDR-56 Radiacmeter inside views. IM-160F/PDR-56 Radiacmeter meter face and control panel. The battery check scale is white.

The Radiac Set AN/PDR-56F is a portable, batteryfor alpha and gamma radiation contamination. operated scintillation type instrument for field use in the detection and measurement of alpha 1-10.

This technical manual provides a repair parts list and special tools list for the Radiac Set AN/PDR-56F. It lists repair parts by functional group with item numbers, SMR codes indicating supply information and maintenance authorization, and figure references.

AN/PDR-56, AN/PDR-77, and ADM-300, an extremely thin piece of aluminized Mylar® film is used on the face of the detector probe to cover a thin layer of florescent material. Energy attenuation of the incident alpha radiation by the Mylar® is estimated to be less than 10 percent; however, use of this film makes the detector extremely fragile.

Contact qualified medical personnel and the local Radiological Protection Officer (RPO) immediately if you are exposed to check source material. Use extreme care not to touch, scratch, or break or remove the surface of the check source while handling them. Never place a dislodged check source in your pocket.

AN/PDR-56D IM-160D/PDR-56 Radiacmeter (Alpha Survey Meter) Measures 0 - 1,000,000 Counts Per Minute Alpha survey meter using a scintillation type detector. This unit uses two "D" size 1½ volt batteries. Tag states it was manufactured for: Navy Department - Ship Systems Command Manufacturer: Gulf Aerospace Corp. / Serial Number: A110

This technical manual provides maintenance instructions for the AN/PDR-56F Radiac Set. It consists of three chapters that cover: 1) an introduction to the equipment and maintenance procedures, 2) an explanation of how the equipment functions, and 3) maintenance instructions including troubleshooting, repair, and testing procedures.

2022年2月23日 · Many variants A..F existed, we have 56E. PROBLEM: ONLY schematic on the web is 56F. Entirely different PCBs, mine has two boards connected by edge connectors, the 56F is single PCB. Seeking any info on these, especially the main meter and PM head schematic and PCB for AN/PDR-56E. Circa 1974. Many thanks ! Mille Mercis! The Internet Dinosaur..
