This portable Geiger counter nuclear radiation detector has 3 modes of light/vibration/sound. Geiger counter can set the current dose alarm value and cumulative dose alarm value. This radiation detector is made of ABS shell, and LCD display, lightweight and wear-resistant, compact size, easy to carry and use.
Multi-function page real-time monitoring
- The nuclear radiation detector provides continuous, real-time measurement of radiation levels, allowing for immediate detection of radiation changes and quick response to potential hazards.
- Equipped with a versatile display that can show various metrics such as radiation dose rate, cumulative dose, and count rate, enabling users to monitor and assess radiation levels effectively.
- The SISCO Geiger counter radiation detector features built-in data logging to record radiation levels over time, which is useful for tracking exposure and generating detailed reports.
The alarm value can be set, and three alarm modes are supported
- Adjustable Alarm Thresholds: Users can set custom alarm levels according to their specific safety requirements. This feature allows for flexibility in monitoring and ensures that alerts are tailored to the radiation safety standards of different environments.
- Visual Alarm: The portable nuclear radiation meter features flashing lights or display indicators that activate when radiation levels exceed the set thresholds, providing a clear visual warning.
- Audible Alarm: Includes a built-in buzzer or speaker that emits sound alerts, ensuring that users are notified of elevated radiation levels even in noisy environments.
- Vibration Alarm: The nuclear radiation detector offers a vibration feature to alert users through tactile feedback, which is particularly useful in environments where audio or visual alerts might be less effective.

Detail
Q1: What is a radiation detector?
A1: A radiation detector is a device designed to detect and measure ionizing radiation, such as alpha, beta, gamma rays, and neutrons. These detectors work by sensing the interaction of radiation with matter, often producing an electrical signal that correlates with the intensity or type of radiation present. Radiation detectors come in various types, including Geiger-Müller counters, scintillation detectors, and solid-state detectors, each tailored to detect different forms of radiation or provide varying levels of sensitivity.Â
Q2: Do radiation detectors need calibration?
A2: Yes, radiation detectors need regular calibration to ensure accurate and reliable measurements. Calibration involves adjusting the detector to account for any changes in its performance over time, which can be caused by factors such as aging components, environmental conditions, or variations in detector sensitivity. Regular calibration helps maintain the accuracy of the readings and ensures that the detector provides precise data for assessing radiation levels. Calibration is typically performed using known radiation sources and may be required by regulatory standards to ensure compliance and safety.
Q3: Can radiation detectors detect non-ionizing radiation?
A3:Â Most radiation detectors are designed to detect ionizing radiation, such as alpha, beta, gamma rays, and neutrons. Non-ionizing radiation, which includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared, and visible light, requires different types of sensors. For example:
- Radio frequency (RF) meters and electromagnetic field (EMF) meters are used to measure non-ionizing radiation like radio waves and microwaves.
- Photodetectors (such as photodiodes) measure visible light, while infrared sensors detect infrared radiation.
Tips: What are the main types of radiation detectors?
- Geiger-Müller (GM) Counters: Detects alpha, beta, and gamma radiation. Commonly used for general radiation monitoring.
- Scintillation Detectors: Uses scintillating material to detect radiation by converting radiation into light, which is then measured.
- Solid-State Detectors: These use semiconductors like silicon to detect radiation, often providing high energy resolution.
- Neutron Detectors: Specifically designed to detect neutron radiation.
- Proportional Counters: Can differentiate between different types of radiation by measuring energy levels.
