• While the vast majority of electrometers are of the floating design, there are some older electrometers with a non-floating design. While effective use of Exradin chambers can be achieved in plastic phantoms or in a water tank with the assistance of a thin, sealed sleeve around the chamber body, usage of a non-floating electrometer is discouraged due to a resulting shock hazard.
