Abstract	The Field Monitoring System described here is being used for long-term measurements of radiation dose rate in the vicinity of nuclear reactors. The output of a high pressure ionization chamber is converted to a binary number, which is written on a magnetic tape cassette every ten seconds. The digital recording permits direct entry of the data into a computer for analysis. The instrument is powered by a rechargeable plug-in battery pack. This permits complete flexibility in choice of monitoring sites. Through the extensive use of COSMOS integrated circuits, a modest sized battery pack yields 18 days operation.
