RADOS RAD - 60:

Rados Rad 60

 

THE ESSENTIAL TOOL FOR PERSONAL RADIATION PROTECTION:

 

The RADOS RAD-60 Personal Alarm Dosimeter is a precise and reliable instrument for ensuring the personal safety of the user. Ideally, the RAD-60 is used in everyday radiation monitoring, in stand-alone conditions. If your needs grow for a more sophisticated system, the versatile RAD-60 can also be integrated into an Access Control System. The RAD-60 can be switched into System Mode, for the purpose of tracking Personnel Dose records and generating compliance reports.

The design includes state-of-the-art technology with built in memory for retrieving dose, even during power-down. It eliminates outside interference from shock and RF. The RAD-60 is easily programmed by the user, has a digital display, and operates with a single AAA alkaline battery.

COULD IT GET ANY EASIER THAN THIS? SO SIMPLE TO USE, WITH THE PUSH OF A BUTTON YOU CAN:

  • TURN THE UNIT ON/OFF
  • CHANGE THE DIGITAL DISPLAY TO READ DOSE OR DOSE RATE
  • SELECT FROM SEVERAL DOSE AND DOSE RATE ALARM LEVELS
  • TURN THE CHIRP FUNCTION ON/OFF
  • RESET INTEGRATED DOSE
  • PERFORM A BATTERY TEST
  • THE LARGE DIGITAL DISPLAY GIVES INSTANT DOSE OR
    DOSE RATE READINGS AND THE AUDIBLE ALARM IS LOUD - BETTER THAN 85 DBA!

Inspector EXP:

Inspector EXP

 

Inspector EXP + Digital Radiation Detector with External GM Probe

 

The Inspector EXP was designed for the requirements of emergency response personnel. It has the same valuable features, small size, and quality of the Inspector, but instead of the built-in detector, it has the added versatility of an external probe. The carrying case has a clear window panel providing full view of the readout, count light, and access to the switches. Convenient hand straps and a belt loop are provided for carrying the instrument. A small pocket is provided for a check source.Inspector EXP in case The unique design of attaching the probe to the carrying case allows one-handed operation if desired. The protective probe cover folds easily out of the way during one-handed operation.

Specifications

Inspector+ (Internal tube):

  • Halogen-quenched, uncompensated GM tube with thin mica window, 1.4-2.0 mg/cm2 areal density.
  • Effective diameter of window is 45 mm (1.75 in.).
  • Radiation symbol on front label marks the center of the detector.

Inspector+ EXP (External probe) RAP-RS1 Probe:

  • Same GM tube as Inspector+. Anodized aluminum housing with coated, black foam grip.
  • 500-volt power supply is in the probe head.
  • Size- Approx. length: 22.2 cm (8.75 in.) Diameter: 7 cm (2.75 in.)
  • Connector - Amphenol tuchel connectors

Display

  • 4 digit liquid crystal display with indicators.
