y x
The Radiation Alert® Sentry is a Personal Alarming
Dosimeter / Ratemeter designed to ensure the safety
of personnel that work in occupations with potential
x-ray or gamma exposure.
The pocket sized unit has built in memory for recording
data points for tracking accumulated exposure.
The Sentry Software option enables you to generate
incident reconstruction for analysis. The software also
permits you to easily set the vibrating and audio alert to
