Model 357BWC Cart mounted semi-port able Tritium monitor

Produced by Overhoff Technology Corporation

The Model 357BWC is a single range, ionization chamber monitor for the measurement of tritium. It is contained on a mobile stainless steel cart and is suitable for moving to multiple sampling points and for continuous duty. The display /control unit is enclosed in a NEMA 12 enclosure on top the cart. It is suited for the monitoring of rooms, glove boxes, fume hoods, exhaust stacks and systems, as well as process piping. The NEMA enclosure has a hinged door with a tempered glass window and is double hinged so

that it can be opened for servicing the various components inside.
