PM1621 series dosimeters are professional energy-compensated instruments, designed to monitor and measure dose equivalent and dose equivalent rate from both gamma and X-ray radiation. Instruments are highly sensitive and register the slightest changes in the natural background radiation. Hermetic and shockproof case and fluorescent backlight on LCD screen allow operation in the harsh and unfavorable environments. PM1621M modification has searching algorithm for detection and localization of radioactive materials.
Instruments of PM1621 series are recommended to use by Law Enforcement and Security agencies, scientists, medical and other professionals, exposed to gamma and X-ray radiation.
Operation Principle
Instruments measure gamma and X-ray dose and dose rate at a wide energy range up to 1 Sv/h, alert user via an audible alarm when the preset dose or dose rate thresholds are exceeded. When the radiation intensity exceeds the upper limit of dose rate measurement, the warning sign “OL” (on LCD) and interrupted audible signal appear. Instruments record and store up to 1000 events (500 DER + 500 DE) in non-volatile memory, transmit all recorded data via an infrared channel to PC for further processing and analysis.
Instruments can be used independently or as a part of unique operational dosimetry system for everyday and emergency radiation control, tailored to the specific needs of customers.
