Ludlum Model 3 Count Rate Meter – Refurbished

The Ludlum Model 3 Survey Meter is an extremely versatile meter, that with proper care, will last decades. It operates on two “D” cells for approximately 2000 hours. The Ludlum Model 3 has adjustable high voltage to 1500 volts and includes external calibration controls. It can be used with GM probe or scintillators to assess a wide range of radioactivity from environmental to high radiation areas.

Add a Counts.Pro for $399 to digitize and record your surveys and turn your meter into a digital scaler/ratemeter/cloud connected GPS datalogger!  Take your meter to the next level with Counts.Pro.  A refurbished meter WITH the Counts.Pro can be had for about the price of a new Model 3.

The four counting ranges are x0.1, x1, x10, x100.

Typical Counting Range is from 0 – 200 mR/hr, or 0 – 500,000 cpm.

The Ludlum Model 3 is supplied as shown with built-in speaker.

Any GM or Model 44-3 or 44-2 gamma scintillator probes and many others can also be used with this meter.
