The CDV-700RP is a
Pancake probe
especially designed as a replacement for the standard beta/gamma probe
from
your Victoreen, Lionel, or Electro Neutronics, Model
CDV-700 survey meter. As a Pancake style probe, its broad
Geiger-Mueller detector surface
will substantially increase the sensitivity of your CDV-700 and enable detection
of Alpha, as well as low energy Beta, Gamma, and X-radiation.
The Replacement Probe is configured with a 3 prong plug and lock-screw type connection.
To swap out your standard probe, simply
unscrew it from its base
and pull out the old Geiger-Mueller tube. Then plug the 3 pronged
Replacement Probe in its place, and hand tighten the built-in knurled lock
screw. See the close-up photo at right of the matching connectors.
The Replacement Probe handle incorporates a black vinyl grip that is adjustable for the perfect fit on
your CDV-700 meter. Complete specifications on the CDV-700RP Replacement
Probe are listed in the table below.
