Rados RAD-60 Personal Alarming Radiation Dosimeter
|

The
RAD-60 Personal Alarming Dosimeter is a precise and
reliable instrument for monitoring radiation exposure ensuring the personal safety of the
user. The RAD-60 is used for all forms of radiation
exposure monitoring including by those subject occupational radiation
monitoring and first responders. It is an easy to use
instrument that is ideal for any individual who wishes to
monitor and track his personal radiation exposure due to a
nuclear accident or the unexpected release of radiation.
This
device is the best solution for those who want to be able to
configure radiation dose and dose rate alarms and be able to
retrieve their radiation exposure information. Since the
RAD-60 uses off-the-shelf AAA batteries, it is economical to
operate and maintain. Since it is available in both R (Rem)
and S (Sievert) versions, it can be used anywhere in the world
where reliable radiation exposure monitoring is required.
The
ergonomic design includes state-of-the-art technology with built in
memory for retrieving radiation dose, even if the unit loses
power. It
is unaffected by outside interferences from shock and RF and
boasts an easy to read digital display.
As your needs grow for
a more sophisticated radiation exposure monitoring and
tracking system, the RAD-60 can also be
integrated into an Access Control System. It can be easily
switched into System Mode, for the purpose of tracking
Personnel Radiation Dose records and generating reports
through the use of the ADR-1 dosimeter reader.
