and permits entry of beta radiation with energies as low as 40 kev. A beta shield may be placed over the window so that the instrument measures only gamma and x-radiation. Direct read ing ranges of 0 to 25, 0 to 250, and 0 to 2500 mr. per hr. are provided on the meter. 6
Refrigerant Unit
The Flo-Kold low-temperature circu lating refrigerant unit, originally mar keted as an auxiliary to the Hyper-Cal high-temperature fractional distillation apparatus, has been redesigned by Podbielniak, Inc. The new model incorporates a cascade assembly of two Freon compressors which will produce a supply of coolant at - 7 5 ° F. held constant within ± 1 ° F. This temperature is obtainable in 90 min., starting from normal room temperature. A circulating pump, handling a low viscosity, low-nieltingpoint coolant, will pump from 400 g.p.h. at zero head to 40 g.p.h. at 10-ft. head. The unit features quiet operation, light weight, low power requirement, and easy portability. It uses standard hermetically sealed motor-compressor units. All internal electrical connec tions are made through one junction box. Quiet operation of the unit permits its use directly adjacent to the IlyperCal, the Mini-Cal, continuous columns, or wherever a readily available supply of subzero coolant is required. 7
Viscometer
A new Type II viscometer, developed for directly determining the kinematic viscosity of fuels, light oils, and noncorrosive liquids, is now available from Commercial Research Laboratories, Inc. An advanced flow system design em ployed in the new instrument permits readability within 1% of indicated viscosity at any point of the scale. Ranges of the Type II are 0.5 to 5.0 and Ά.0 to 30 centistokes. The viscometer is supplied as a port able unit for laboratory or field use, or as a panel-mounted unit for use on either new or existing equipment. 8
