Regulatory FCC Part 15 compliant 4.Applications Dental Office: Over time, even low levels of ionizing radiation from X-Ray machines present potential health hazards. Although dental technicians or hygienists may stand outside the examination room during X-Rays administration, the risk of overexposure still exists and should be monitored to ensure the health of your employees. RAYCAN RadTarge II can give your staff real-time protection. Veterinary Practice: Extra care is required in X-Raying animals, because human intervention is needed. Therefore, the possibility of radiation exposure is higher than in other medical practices. The best way to monitor radiation is with reliable, quality radiation monitoring service from RAYCAN. Use RAYCAN RadTarge II to know the cumulative exposure levels of your employees to ensure their safety. Hospital: The multitudes of diagnostic equipment in the modern hospital environment have varying levels of radiation exposure risks. For example, hospital staff in radiation oncology and radiology departments need to accurately measure the dose of radiation they receive while working near medical equipment containing radioisotopes, and to ensure that the radioactive sources in the equipment are not leaking and emitting hazardous radiation levels. RAYCAN RadTarge II ensures that you assess risk levels appropriately and that the proper dosimetry monitoring is implemented in a cost-efficient manner. Radiological Center: X-ray or diagnostic equipment in your office have varying levels of radiation exposure risks. RAYCAN Dosimetry Solutions can ensure that you assess risk levels appropriately and that the proper dosimetry monitoring is implemented in a cost-efficient manner. High-energy Physics: High-energy nuclear physics and high-energy physics experiments (HPE) frequently require scintillator detectors that are immune to both static and changing magnetic fields. In most cases, this precludes the use of photomultiplier tubes. RAYCAN RadTarge II provides the required immunity to magnetic disturbances, plus the extremely high photon sensitivity and speed required to capture the decay-chain characteristics of nuclear disintegrations and high-energy particle collisions. 5.Benifit Statement ● As an “Active Self Reading” device, BOTH dose rate AND accumulated dose are measured in real time enabling user to always be aware of current exposure.
● Ergonomic Upward facing large backlit LCD display offers user readability in dark or bright environments ● Pocket-sized portability with convenient belt clip ● 3 types of alarms - our users are alerted by a multitude of ways: vibration, audible and visible ● Alarm level - either preset or user programmable through entire measurement range ● Intuitive menu-driven navigation allows user to adjust settings in the field ● Easy operation with one hand with just two buttons allowing total control with a thumb ● Proportional real-time “Detection and Measurement” provides meaningful readouts which focus on the awareness and safety of the user during critical times ● Patented MVT sampling method resulting in no signal loss and high signal to noise ratio ● Low-power CMOS digital electronics combined with digital silicon photomultiplier chip (SiPM) ● Dose and dose rate alarm provides additional awareness of high radiation levels. ● Blue acrylic tamper proof label prevents user from opening instrument thus ensuring operational integrity for compliance and liability concerns 6.Operation 1.
