RAD-60 - Personal Alarming Dosimeter and Rate Meter:

Home  :  SE International  :  Products 

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 alarms
  • 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!
