NM01SENTRYEC
The SE INTL Personal Alarming Dosimeter & Rate Meter with Metal Case is a robust and reliable instrument designed for continuous monitoring of individual radiation exposure. This device measures both the accumulated dose of gamma and X-ray radiation (typically in Sieverts or Roentgens) and the current dose rate (typically in Sieverts/hour or Roentgens/hour). The integrated alarming functions provide immediate warnings when pre-set dose or dose rate thresholds are exceeded, ensuring the safety of the user.
The metal case is a significant feature, offering superior protection to the internal electronics and detector from physical impacts, dust, and moisture, making it suitable for use in industrial, field, and emergency response scenarios where durability is paramount.
Key Features Typically Included:
Gamma and X-ray Detection: Specifically designed to measure exposure to gamma and X-ray radiation.
Dose Rate Measurement: Continuously displays the current rate of radiation exposure.
Accumulated Dose Measurement: Tracks and displays the total radiation dose received over a period.
User-Programmable Alarms: Allows the user to set custom threshold levels for both dose rate and accumulated dose. When these levels are reached or exceeded, the dosimeter will trigger audible, visual (e.g., flashing LED), and/or vibrating alarms to alert the wearer.
Digital Display: Provides a clear and easy-to-read digital display of the current dose rate, accumulated dose, alarm status, and potentially other parameters like battery level and time.
Durable Metal Case: Offers enhanced physical protection against impacts, dust, and moisture, increasing the lifespan and reliability of the instrument in harsh environments.
Compact and Lightweight: Designed for comfortable wear throughout the workday, typically featuring a clip for attachment to clothing.
Long Battery Life: Operates on a battery (often a standard type or a rechargeable battery) designed to last for extended periods to ensure continuous monitoring.
Data Logging Capabilities (May Vary): Some advanced models may include the ability to log dose rate and accumulated dose data over time for later analysis.
User Interface: Simple and intuitive controls for setting alarm levels and navigating the display.
Self-Test Function: Often includes a self-test feature to verify the proper operation of the instrument.
Typical Applications:
Individuals working in nuclear power plants.
Medical professionals using radiation equipment (e.g., radiology technicians).
Industrial radiographers.
Emergency responders who may be exposed to radiation.
Environmental monitoring and surveying.
Research involving radioactive materials.
