Personal Radiation Monitors
The instrument will automatically alarm with an audible signal and blinking display when either the dose rate (0.01 mR/hr to 999 R/hr) or accumulated dose (0 to 1999 R) setpoints are exceeded. The dose is recorded until manually reset and is for use as reference only; it is not intended for legal dose recording. This small device can be worn on a belt, lanyard, or armband. Intrinsically safe models (IS) available.
