Personal Radiation Detectors (PRDs):
PM1703MA-II/BT Personal Radiation Detector
Overview:
PM1703-II series of personal radiation detectors (PRDs) are extremely sensitive and robust devices that detect and locate even trace amounts of radioactive materials.
Equipped with a clip for multiple wearing options and easy to operate even for non-specialists, PRDs became the perfect fit as Radiation Pagers for public security agencies, including border control, rescue teams, police and anti-terrorist units that need to quickly search for radioactive materials in public places.
PM1703MA-II models are gamma-only PRDs equipped with a high-sensitive scintillator for measurement of the personal dose rate up to 300 µSv/h. PM1703MA–II BT model in addition has a Bluetooth module that enables communication with smartphones for advanced operation via the free Polismart® App.
Operation principle
PM1703MA-II models are gamma-only PRDs equipped with a high-sensitive scintillator for measurement of the personal dose rate up to 300 µSv/h. While ensuring high-performance detection for any scenario, PM1703-II PRD provides confidence in personal safety by continuously monitoring the measured dose equivalent rate and alerting the user with visual, audible and vibration alarms when the pre-set radiation thresholds are exceeded.
Operating history is stored in the instrument‘s non-volatile memory (up to 2000 data points), protecting the data even when the battery is removed. The stored data can also be transferred to a PC via USB. Storing data format is designed to meet the ANSI N42.42.
The PRD features a dedicated operation mode “Mode 0…9” specifically designed for monitoring gamma radiation dose rate within a numerical range. This mode is particularly user-friendly, making it easier for non-professionals to understand and navigate.
Polimaster PRDs offer a significant advantage with their NORM suppression algorithm. This algorithm differentiates alarm signals when there is an increase in natural gamma background values and detection of Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM). When NORMs are detected, a green indication light is displayed. However, if other radionuclide types (IND, NUC, MED) are detected, a red indication light and sound alarm are activated. This feature ensures clear and distinct indications based on the specific type of radiation detected.

X-ray and Gamma Radiation Dosimeters
PM1610 X-Ray and Gamma Radiation Personal Dosimeter
Overview:
PM1610 series of electronic personal dosimeters (EPDs) are intended for measurement of the personal dose equivalent Hp(10) and personal dose equivalent rate Ḣp(10). The dosimeters are suitable for multiple applications providing the measurement of X-ray (continuous and pulsed) and gamma radiation in the wide energy range.
PM1610 dosimeters have unique features for operation in workplaces requiring the use of personal protective equipment or a harsh environment, including a shockproof rubberized case, a high contrast display with a fluorescent backlight, and two big buttons for easy use even while wearing protective gloves.
Operation principle
PM1610 EPDs allow the setting of two dose rate alarm thresholds and two dose alarm thresholds. The instruments continuously control the threshold levels and alert the user with audible, visual and vibration alarms when the threshold levels are exceeded. PM1610 automatically records and stores in its non-volatile memory up to 7500 dose rate and dose measurement history events.
The dosimeter is manufactured in two models: the basic PM1610 model and the PM1610A model with an extended dose measurement range of up to 20 Sv and improved accuracy of the dose rate measurement.
EPD is supplied with the user software for downloading measurement history to a PC, maintaining personnel exposure database and adjusting the settings of the dosimeter. PM1610 dosimeters are also compatible with PM530 Automated Personal Dosimetry System for maintaining the instrument history database and monitoring personnel exposure.

PM1610 series of electronic personal dosimeters (EPDs) are intended for measurement of the personal dose equivalent Hp(10) and personal dose equivalent rate Ḣp(10). The dosimeters are suitable for multiple applications providing the measurement of X-ray (continuous and pulsed) and gamma radiation in the wide energy range.
PM1610 dosimeters have unique features for operation in workplaces requiring the use of personal protective equipment or a harsh environment, including a shockproof rubberized case, a high contrast display with a fluorescent backlight, and two big buttons for easy use even while wearing protective gloves.
Operation principle
PM1610 EPDs allow the setting of two dose rate alarm thresholds and two dose alarm thresholds. The instruments continuously control the threshold levels and alert the user with audible, visual and vibration alarms when the threshold levels are exceeded. PM1610 automatically records and stores in its non-volatile memory up to 7500 dose rate and dose measurement history events.
The dosimeter is manufactured in two models: the basic PM1610 model and the PM1610A model with an extended dose measurement range of up to 20 Sv and improved accuracy of the dose rate measurement.
EPD is supplied with the user software for downloading measurement history to a PC, maintaining personnel exposure database and adjusting the settings of the dosimeter. PM1610 dosimeters are also compatible with PM530 Automated Personal Dosimetry System for maintaining the instrument history database and monitoring personnel exposure.
