Single-channel radiation survey meter (A radiation survey meter or area monitor that includes a spectrometer which separates pulses received from a detector (usually a scintillation or semiconductor detector) according to pulse size. Pulse size is proportional to energy of the detected radiation and provides spectroscopy information about the radiation source. It identifies unknown isotopes and counts one isotope in the presence of others. It typically consists of a detector (scintillation or semiconductor detector), a linear amplifier, a pulse height selector, a read out device. The pulse height selector is an electronic slit that is adjusted to pass pulses whose amplitude is between a selected minimum and maximum.)
