Intrinsically safe personal radiation detectors
March 2011
Analytical Instrumentation & Environmental Monitoring
The new 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 and emergency services.
In potentially explosive atmospheres it is necessary to use ATEX certified devices for gamma and radiation dose rate measurements. RadEye G-10-Ex has a measuring range from 0,5 to 100 mSv/h, while RadEye GF-10-Ex has a measuring range from 5 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 engineered to avoid the generation of heat and electrical sparks. The rugged and reliable devices have a large backlit display for error free readings, are lightweight and utilise low power technology.
