Introduction
1.1 Procedures, Warnings and Cautions
• The equipment described in this manual is intended to be used for the detection
and measurement of ionizing radiation. It should be used only by persons who
have been trained in the proper interpretation of its readings and the appropriate
safety procedures to be followed in the presence of radiation.
• Although the equipment described in this manual is designed and manufactured
in compliance with all applicable safety standards, certain hazards are inherent in
the use of electronic and radiometric equipment.
• WARNINGS and CAUTIONS are presented throughout this document to alert the
user to potentially hazardous situations.
• A WARNING is a precautionary message preceding an operation that has the
potential to cause personal injury or death.
• A CAUTION is a precautionary message preceding an operation that has the
potential to cause permanent damage to the equipment and/or loss of data.
• Failure to comply with WARNINGS and CAUTIONS is at the user's own risk and
is sufficient cause to terminate the warranty agreement between Fluke
Biomedical, Radiation Management Services and the customer.
• Adequate warnings are included in this manual and on the product itself to cover
hazards that may be encountered in normal use and servicing of this equipment.
No other procedures are warranted by Fluke Biomedical.
• It shall be the owner's or user's responsibility to see to it that the procedures
described here are meticulously followed, and especially that WARNINGS and
CAUTIONS are heeded. Failure on the part of the owner or user in any way to
follow the prescribed procedures shall absolve Fluke Biomedical and its agents
from any resulting liability.
• Indicated battery and other operational tests must be performed prior to each use
to assure that the instrument is functioning properly.
• If applicable, failure to conduct periodic performance tests in accordance with
ANSI N323-1978 (R1983) Radiation Protection Instrumentation Test and
Calibration, paragraphs 4.6 and 5.4, and to keep records thereof in accordance
with paragraph 4.5 of the same standard, could result in erroneous readings or
potential danger.
• ANSI N323-1978 becomes, by this reference, a part of this operating procedure.

2.1 General Description
Refer to 1060-005 drawing located in Appendix A .
The Fluke Biomedical local , remote , and flasher alarms are used in conjunction with
the Victoreen Model 1060AM-NM-LR. The operating range of this system is 0.01 mR/hr
to 1R/hr. The red halogen lamps and the flashing yellow sign provides a remote (75ft)
and a local visual alarm indication. The green incandescent lights operate at half power
and indicate normal operating conditions while in a radiation field of less than 2mR/hr
+/- 10%.
An efficient dual led (red / green) operates in a similar fashion and shall alert personnel
of a bulb burn out in either the local or the remote alarms.
The Local alarm also includes two female power connectors (J1 and J2) each with a set
of normally closed contacts. J3 is a male connector with a dust cover that interfaces
with the 1060am-nm-LR . A ½ inch conduit fitting is provided for the hot (L1), neutral
(L2), and earth ground connections.
The Remote and Flasher alarm both have a single male plug connector (P1) to
interconnect with the local alarms normally closed contacts. Conduit fittings provide
access for the neutral (L2) and earth ground terminations. The Flasher alarm includes
an AC solid state timer that switches two 25W halogen lamps at a frequency of about
forty flashes per minute.

2.5 Installation
WARNING
To prevent electrical shock, ensure that power is disconnected before installing the alarms
Installation of the 1060am-nm-lrvar consists of mounting the unit , providing an
electrical interface , and performing an operational check.
The 1060-024,1060-034, and 1060-026 have four mounting holes inside each chassis
with a 0.19 diameter clearance.
1 Remove four sheet metal screws from the case assembly . (1060-024 and 1060-034).
Slide out the yellow acrylic panel from the chassis from either side of the flasher
alarm assembly . (1060-026).
2 .Using a chassis as a template mark, the mounting surface for hole positioning.
3. Drill the necessary holes in the mounting surface.
4 .Secure the chassis with the appropriate screws.
5.Determine a suitable location to mount the 1060am-nm-LR . The alarm threshold is
set at 2 mR/hr . A field between 10mr/hr and a 100mr/hr is good starting point. Contact
your radiation safety officer for your company requirements.
CAUTION
If readings from a device’s position indicates that the radiation rate is relatively high, CAUTION
should be observed when replacing or working on this unit. High rates can quickly cause the
operator’s cumulative exposure to increase with the potential for injury .
6. The 1060am-nm-LR may be queried for this radiation rate remotely with the RS-232
communications using the RRM command Read mR /Hr (averaged over 60
seconds).Wait two minutes, and repeat the command RRM as necessary See manual
1060am-1 for more information.
7. A twenty-five foot cable assembly pn (1060am-nm-11) is available with a DB9F
connector and a five pin circular connector .If this length is inadequate , use the
connector kit supplied with the 1060am-nm-LR . Select the 5 pin male and assemble
your own .Refer to the section labeled ,Connections –1060am-nm (NEMA 4 enclosure) .
TXD, RXD, and GND are the signals required for RS-232 communications .
