DATA TRANSFER TO PC
1. You can upload the measured data to PC using RadexRead
software.
2. Connect the device to PC using USB cable (included).
3. Start RadexRead software. Now, the device is ready to sync with PC.
NOTE: Radexread software should be installed on your computer
prior to use.
FLASHLIGHT
To switch the flashlight, press and hold
for a few seconds.
Radiation: How much is harmful?
Not all radiation is the same, so scientists use the ‘sievert’ to measure the
health risks of radiation.
A one-sievert dose of radiation would cause immediate radiation sickness.
But most radiation doses are much smaller, so you’ll see them measured in
millisieverts or even smaller microsieverts.
1 sievert = 1000 millisieverts
1 millisievert = 1000 microsieverts
uSv/h
micro Sieverts per hour.
0.10
This is low, it does not get any lower.
0.21
Pretty normal. Depends on local geology.
0.42
Happens occasionally with no real reason.
Just keep an eye on it.
0.83
ALERT - No need to panic, but try to figure
out what is going on, stay out of the rain
and avoid unnecessary trips.
1.25
Real risk of cancer if exposed for a year.
4.17
Real risk of cancer if exposed for 90 days.
20,000
Annual limit for Nuclear Plant Workers.
100,000 Annual limit for Fukushima workers.
Sievert calculations based on Cesium-137 isotope.
