Description

DoseG and DoseGX represent a new EPD-27 family of electronic personal dosimeters from ECOTEST trademark.

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

Purpose of use

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

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

  • 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

  • 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 m on a hard surface
