Function Description Functional Description 4 4-1 Section 4 Function Description 4.1 Functional Description High-Range Containment Monitor Detector 877-1 The high-range containme nt monitor detector is an io n chambe r detector that has the appeara nce of a six-inch diameter dom ed cylinder about seven inch es long, mounted on an L shaped b racket.
Victoreen 875 Operators Manual 4-2 Preamplifier I Meter Printed Circuit Board (P/N 876A-1-86, Schematic 876A-1-3E) The detector current, measuring from 7 x 10 - 11 to 7 x 10 -4 amperes respectively, at the bottom and top of the reading range, enters the reado ut on rear panel connector J1.
Function Description Readout Module876A-1 4 4-3 High Voltage Power Supply Normal Operation (non-ECS Test) The multivibrator circuit of Q7 and Q8 also suppli e s the input to the high voltage generator. Two of the transistors of U1 act as buf fers between the multiv ibrator and the high volta ge circuit.
Victoreen 875 Operators Manual 4-4 Preamplifier I Meter Board Power Supply (P/N 876-1-86, Schematic 876-1-3E) A +6.2 V power supply contained on the pre amplifier me ter board has as its input the +15 V from the power supply board.
Function Description Readout Module876A-1 4 4-5 There is a yellow ALERT ALARM jumper connecte d to the collector (pin 1) of the alert alarm relay driver stage of U503.
Victoreen 875 Operators Manual 4-6 The pen clamp circuit is a clamping circui t consisting of U501, pins 8, 9 and 10 an d diode CR502. It prevents pin 9 from going negative. The purp ose of this is to prevent the recorder pen from being jammed against the baseline.
Function Description Readout Module876A-1 4 4-7 During the ECS test, all alarms are muted; that is, their operation is disabled until the completion of the test. During this six-second period there is no warning of a high radiation condition. If this situation is not tolerable, two containment monitors must be installed.
