The gamma dose-rate probe, model RPSG-07, developed and manufactured by MicroStep-MIS, is designed for monitoring a wide range of gamma radiation dose rates with high sensitivity – from natural background levels to dangerous values.
The Gamma Dose Rate Probe RPSG-07 is a measuring device designed to determine dose rates of X-ray and gamma-ray radiation, ranging from background levels to high amounts generated by accidental releases from nuclear plants, nuclear facilities, or other sources of radioactivity.
It incorporates two energy-compensated Geiger–Müller (GM) tubes, covering a wide measurement range of dose rates from 10 nSv/h up to 10 Sv/h.
The fiberglass housing makes this sensor lightweight (weighing less than 1 kg), water- and dust-proof (IP 68), making it suitable to operate in harsh environments. Thanks to the lightweight material used, it is highly sensitive to minor changes in the ambient natural radioactivity level and is capable of measuring extremely high dose rates.
The Gamma Dose-Rate Probe RPSG-07 functions as a standalone sensor or can be used in conjunction with our data loggers, AMS 111 IV or AMS 111 Compact, in a station configuration. It can also be employed as a handheld device with the option to connect to the UDCS/EnviDB Central System. The low power consumption of the Gamma Dose Rate Probe RPSG-07 enables its use at solar-powered stations.
