NM01W138S
The Model W138-S Direct-Reading Dosimeter is a reliable and straightforward instrument designed for personal monitoring of gamma and X-ray radiation exposure. With a measurement range of 0 to 2 millisieverts (mSv), this dosimeter provides immediate, on-the-spot readings of accumulated radiation dose in the internationally recognized SI unit of Sieverts.
This self-reading dosimeter operates without the need for batteries or external power. It utilizes an ionization chamber that discharges proportionally to the amount of radiation encountered. The accumulated dose is directly viewed by holding the dosimeter up to a light source and observing the position of a hairline indicator on an internal scale through the built-in window. The "-S" designation in the model number indicates that the scale is calibrated in Sieverts (mSv).
The Model W138-S is designed for simplicity and ease of use, making it an ideal choice for individuals who require immediate awareness of their radiation exposure in Sievert units. Its rugged construction ensures durability in various working environments.
