    Description

    DoseG and DoseGX represent a new family of electronic personal dosimeters from the ECOTEST brand.

    Dosimeters are intended for use as part of an automated system of individual dosimetric control and for autonomous use. Electronic personal dosimeters EPD-27 are available in two modifications – DoseG and DoseGX.

    Dosimeters are used in nuclear power plants, in medicine, in industry, in radiological laboratories, and in institutions where they use sources of photon ionizing radiation.

    Purpose of use

    • Measurement of gamma and X-ray radiation individual dose equivalent (DE).

    • Measurement of gamma and X-ray radiation individual dose equivalent rate (DER).

    • Monitoring of time spent in the control zone.

    • Maintaining an automated database of dose load on personnel as part of the software and hardware complex (unified) automated system of individual dosimetric control of personnel.

    Features

    • Wide energy measuring range from 12 keV to 10 MeV (DoseGX model).

    • Two threshold levels for DE, DER, and the time spent in the control zone.

    • It may be used as a part of the automated IDC system.

    • Compliance with the requirements of the International Standard IEC 61526.

    • Scintillator-based detectors with a silicon photomultiplier.

    • Ability to store data in non-volatile memory.

    • Sound, light, and vibration alarms of threshold levels exceeding.

    • Infrared port for transferring the dose accumulation history and event history from the dosimeter to the personal computer, as well as for setting up the dosimeter.

    • Glass-filled plastic shock-resistant housing of high ingress protection rating IP67.

    • Backlight of the digital display.

    • Resistant to 60 repetitive shocks, each corresponding to a drop of 10 cm on a hard steel surface, and resistant to 6 drops (one drop on each side) from a height of 1.0 m on a hard surface.
