NM01W725

The 0-5R Direct Reading Dosimeter with Window is a rugged and reliable personal radiation detection device designed for immediate and on-the-spot monitoring of gamma and X-ray exposure. This self-reading dosimeter provides personnel working in radiation environments with a direct visual indication of their accumulated dose, enhancing safety and ensuring compliance with radiation protection protocols.  

The dosimeter features a transparent window that allows the user to easily view the internal scale and the position of a hairline indicator. As the dosimeter is exposed to radiation, the hairline moves across the scale, providing a direct reading of the accumulated dose in Roentgens (R), up to a maximum of 5 Roentgens.

This direct reading capability eliminates the need for external processing or equipment to determine exposure, providing immediate feedback to the wearer. This allows for real-time monitoring of radiation levels and informed decision-making regarding work practices and potential exposure limits.

Key Features:

• Direct Reading: Provides immediate visual indication of accumulated gamma and X-ray dose in Roentgens (0-5R range).

• Easy to Use: Simple operation requires no batteries or external equipment for reading.

• Rugged and Durable: Designed to withstand the demands of various work environments.  

• Pocket-Sized and Portable: Convenient for personal monitoring and carrying throughout the workday.

• Reliable Performance: Offers a dependable method for tracking radiation exposure.

• Transparent Window: Allows for clear and easy reading of the internal scale.

Benefits:

• Real-Time Exposure Monitoring: Provides immediate feedback to the wearer, enhancing safety awareness.

• Improved Safety Practices: Enables informed decisions about work procedures in radiation environments.

• No External Processing Required: Eliminates the need for separate reading devices or processing steps.

• Cost-Effective Solution: A simple and reliable method for personal radiation monitoring.

• Durable and Long-Lasting: Rugged construction ensures reliable performance over time.

Applications:

The 0-5R Direct Reading Dosimeter with Window is widely used by personnel working in various environments where exposure to gamma and X-rays is a potential hazard, including:

• Nuclear Power Plants: Monitoring radiation exposure for plant workers and technicians.

• Industrial Radiography: Tracking doses for radiographers performing non-destructive testing.

• Medical Facilities: Monitoring exposure for radiology staff, nuclear medicine personnel, and radiation therapists.
