1.1 Product Description
A dosimeter is a pocketsize, quartz-fiber electroscope with an ion chamber for detecting an indication
integrated exposure to gamma and x-radiation. It has a thin wall that permits the penetration and
detection of radiation.
Accumulated radiation is read directly on an internal calibrated scale. A Dosimeter Charger (model 06-
912) is required in order to return the dosimeter to zero after each exposure period.
