Can this detect x-rays? We are looking for a unit to detect any potential leaks in an industrial x-ray machine.

yes, it will detect radiation from x-rays. also, it will detect radiation from construction site those soil compact tester (yellow box).

this only detects smoke/steam; it does not detect carbon monoxide. It would be useful anywhere that you can hear it.

I have used it to find an iron pipe about 18" underground. Sometimes it would lose track of the pipe and then pick it up further down the line. Not sure why this is. If it could only find exactly where the leaks are it would really be amazing! Unfortunately, metal detectors are not designed to locate leaks, they just locate the pipe which is a big help. I have found three leaks in an old irrigation system thus far but the next one is still eluding me. There must be a leak as water is going in and not coming out. It has also picked up miscellaneous things a couple of inches from the surface located while searching for the pipe. I have been very pleased with it especially given the price.

It detects Beta, Gamma and X-Ray but try going to: http://www.radon.com/ for more affordable information!

I doubt this would be sensitive enough to detect that low of a level radiation present in food. I use mine primerily for finding radioactivy in man made objects. http://youtu.be/uEJir3G1v0U

Depends on how deep they are. This will discover metalic objects perhaps an inch below the surface, but it's prime use is to "pinpoint" the operator closer towards the object he/she seeks that the metal detector has already found.

No, this equipment can only digitise your analog films (already developed films by conventional chemical methods) and do not have the capability to read sensor plates (CCD or phosphor coated)

Radiation detectors only pickup decaying particles close by. You would need to be close to Fukushima area to detect anything serious. Unless you're going to Japan I would suggest something reliable and inexpensive like the www.amazon.com/International-Medcom-CRM-100-Digital-Radiation/dp/B006C4ZTEK .

Yes, it detects rebars, and I think nails. Please check the deep and the minimum wide range of the tool.Regards and good luck

Yes, the device has Japanese, Russian and English displays. The device measures background radiation, i'm not sure of its effectiveness in liquids, but if it is significant it should detect.

I don't think this is correct product for you. It is made to detect the location of small leaks. You already know the source/location of your "leak". It is not an alarm but a diagnostic tool.

Yes it can, but I suspect the small Gauss Meter (Ghost Detector) cannot register the actual strength of the E/M waves.The ghost detector is sensitive to very light magnetic anomolies and is no substitute for industrial meters.If you only want to know if you microwave is leaking I don't think it will work because the extreme power within themicrowave would cancel it out. Good Luck anyway

Yes the meter should show voltage and or amps being drawn if there is a leak. Just remember that some radio's and electronic bildge pumps will pull voltage and slight amprage for memory [radio] and to check for water pressure [pump] Electronic bildge pump don't look for water level they sence water pressure to turn them on and off.

Yes it will detect a fuel leak in a gasoline engine w/o problems. The amount wíĺl vary with the volume of fuel. Suģgestion: use a separste contreiner witj little volume so that you can get a higher concentration of ink. The laek will be much more visible under black ligth.

Not really. Its not designed to do so. It may but there is no way to tell if it is wiring or something else. The instructions give a warning that what it detects could be a stud, pipe, wire or other objects

This device is intended to measure the temperature of surfaces, as walls, floors, ceilings and such. IF you had a warm wall with cold water leaking behind it, OR a cold wall with hot water leaking behind it, the device may be able to detect that, but I certainly wouldn't want to guarantee that. If you have water leaking behind a wall, it would seem as you should see some puddling, weeping, or evidence of water in the area ??Russ Pratt, Webster, MA

I have not tried to go through x-ray screening with the film, however I found this info on the Fuji website: Airport baggage inspection equipment use X-raysthat may cause irreparable damage to film, includingstreaking in the final photos. It is thus recommendedthat you present film packs and loaded cameras toairport security personnel for visual inspection whenpassing through a baggage check.ï Film fogging may occur in hospitals, factories, labo-ratories and other locations using X-rays. Keep filmsaway from radiation sources.
