Tracerco
PED-ER+
The PED-ER+ provides the ultimate in radiation monitoring, measurement and management for those working in challenging environments. Ideal for use by industrial NDT workers, emergency services and first response teams (CBRNe).
It has an extended dose rate range of up to 100 R/Hr, weather, shock and drop proof housings, Tracerco’s PED ER+ is the ideal solution for use in rugged environments.
PED-ER+
Personal Electronic Dosimeter
The PED ER+ also comes complete with Bluetooth technology, meaning live dose rates can be transmitted to an Android device located in a safe area. This allows the management and monitoring of situations to be undertaken in real time, away from a potentially hazardous event. The addition of GPS tracking provides location data alongside dose data, giving a map of potential radiation hazards when data is downloaded
With an extended dose rate range of up to 100 R/Hr, weather, shock and drop proof housings, Tracerco’s PED ER+ is the ideal solution for use in rugged environments. Portability, the ability to provide immediate data on a large clear display and the capability of being used as both a Personal Dosimeter and a handheld dose rate survey meter, ensures that the safety of both the worker, and those personnel that are in the area of the event is never compromised. Pop-up message alarms (when dose limits are reached), to the user, also allows personnel to organize, plan and respond to radiation more efficiently.
Features
Handheld mode allows the device to be used as a handheld survey meter
Shows readings in dose rate (Sv or rem) and displays a live trend graph to show activity in real time
Measurement is corrected for use off-body, so personal accumulated dose is not recorded
An extended dose rate range of up to 1Sv/h
Weather, shock and drop-proof housing – ideal for rugged environments.
Dose rate data is logged in off-body mode, allowing data review with DoseVision
Pop-up alert messages display clear instructions at alarm threshold
Allows location data to be logged to the device alongside dose and dose rate data, that can be viewed using DoseVision
