  • Alerts first responders to radioactive threats
  • Accurately measures accumulated dose to the wearer
  • Immersible in water for easy decontamination
  • Top-mounted, invertable display
  • Continuous digital readout in Rem/hour (μR/h & mR/h) or in Sievert/hour (μSv/h & mSv/h) and counts per second (cps)
