Release–Intrinsically Safe Personal Radiation Detectors
The Thermo Scientific RadEye G EX series of intrinsically safe personal radiation detectors are designed for safe measurements of radiation dose rates in potentially explosive environments, such as petroleum refineries, oil platforms, as well as being ideal for emergency services.
In emergency response and in industry, flammable and explosive materials like gases, dust and fibres can occur. In such potentially explosive atmospheres it is necessary to use ATEX certified devices for gamma radiation dose rate measurements. RadEye G-10-Ex has a measuring range from 0,5 μSv/ to 100 mSv/h, while RadEye GF-10-Ex has a measuring range from 5 μSv/h to 1 Sv/h.
The RadEye G EX series of intrinsically safe handheld devices are designed according to the latest ATEX standards to meet the needs of the operator in and around hazardous areas.
Devices certified as ‘intrinsically safe’ are designed to be unable to release sufficient electrical or thermal energy to cause ignition of flammable materials like gas, dust or particulates. Beside the ATEX tags, the visual difference between the RadEye versions is noted by the orange colour on the front panel of the intrinsically safe versions.
The RadEye G EX devices have been re-engineered to reduce energy safety issues, while avoiding the generation of heat and electrical sparks. They are premium products designed for ultimate safety and accurate dose rate measurements. The rugged and reliabledevices have a large, clear and backlit display for error free readings, are lightweight and utilise low power technology.
