## Summary description

The Voltcraft RM-400 Geiger counter (VC-12822170) is a portable radiation detector for measuring alpha, beta, gamma and X‑ray radiation. It features an acoustic alarm for threshold alerts, integrated data logging and comes with analysis software for viewing and exporting measurements. Suitable for field surveys, laboratory checks and educational use where multi‑type radiation monitoring and data review are required.

## Long description

The Voltcraft RM-400 Geiger counter is a handheld radiation detector designed to measure alpha, beta, gamma and X‑ray radiation. Compact and battery-powered, it provides real-time count rate and dose information, an audible alarm for user-defined thresholds, integrated data logging and analysis software for reviewing and exporting measurement records. The instrument is intended for field surveys, laboratory spot checks and educational demonstrations where multi‑type radiation monitoring and simple data handling are needed.
Advantages
The device supports detection of multiple radiation types—alpha, beta, gamma and X‑rays—using an appropriate detector configuration to address varied measurement tasks. An acoustic alarm signals when a preset threshold is exceeded, allowing quick response in surveys. Built-in data logging captures measurement sequences and timestamps, and included analysis software enables visualization and export of collected data for further evaluation. The handheld form factor and straightforward controls make the instrument practical for mobile or on‑site use.
Suitable for
Environmental and field radiation surveys
Laboratory spot checks and contamination monitoring
Educational demonstrations and training in radiation measurement
Preliminary screening of materials for radioactive contamination
Routine audits where documented measurement records are required
When it may not be suitable
This instrument is intended for general-purpose monitoring and screening rather than for high-precision scientific research or legal dose assessment. It should not be used as the sole device for regulatory compliance measurements that require calibrated laboratory-grade equipment or instruments with accreditation for legal dosimetry.
Key specifications
Radiation types detected: alpha, beta, gamma and X‑rays
Display: real-time count rate and dose readout
Alarm: audible threshold alarm with adjustable setpoint
Data logging: integrated logger with timestamped records
Connectivity: PC interface for use with supplied analysis software (data export capability)
Power: battery-operated for portable use
How to use
Power on the unit and allow any warm-up or stabilization period recommended by the manufacturer. Select the appropriate detection mode for the radiation type of interest and position the detector close to the surface or point to be measured, maintaining a consistent orientation and distance for repeatable results. Set the alarm threshold if automatic alerts are needed and start the data logging function to record measurement sequences. After completing measurements, connect the device to a PC using the provided interface and load the analysis software to view, analyze and export recorded data.
What to consider before purchase
Required detection types: confirm the unit detects the radiation types relevant to your tasks (alpha, beta, gamma, X‑ray).
Measurement accuracy needs: for regulatory or legal dose assessments, verify whether a laboratory‑calibrated instrument is required instead.
Data management: ensure the included software and export formats meet your record-keeping and analysis requirements.
Portability and power: check battery life and operational conditions for field use.
Usage recommendations
For consistent screening results, perform measurements with the detector at a steady, repeatable distance from the source and record background readings before and after surveys. Use the data logging function to maintain traceable records and review exported files with the supplied analysis software to identify trends or anomalies. For tasks requiring exact dose quantification or regulatory reporting, supplement measurements with accredited instruments or laboratory services.
