Description

Detailed Overview

Built on more than ten years of real-world user experience, the Tracerco™ Personal Electronic Dosimeter Gen 2 (PED2) stands as a grab-and-go guardian for radiation safety. Engineered for X-ray and gamma ray monitoring, it measures, records, and displays both dose rate and accumulated dose in real time. Equipped with up to four configurable alarm thresholds, the PED2 delivers audible, visual, textual, and haptic alerts, ensuring nothing goes unnoticed.

Its single-button navigation and intuitive carousel-style menu make operation effortless, while the large, high-visibility color display provides crisp, immediate situational clarity. Exposure data is automatically captured and stored in a self-managing memory system, ready to be securely transferred into the Tracerco™ DoseVision™ software.

Within DoseVision™, data becomes easy to visualize, configure, and report — with optional cloud-based services offering secure, auditable, and efficient management of both equipment and worker dose records. Rugged and intelligent, PED2 is designed to protect without complicating.

Highest safety certified electronic dosimeter for constant radiation monitoring in explosive atmospheres.

  • This device is certified as intrinsically safe, allowing personnel to safely monitor their personal radiation dose in hazardous environments (Zone 0/1) where flammable gases or dust are present.
  • It provides immediate warnings and logs dose data for regulatory compliance.
  • The product is the PED2-IS electronic dosimeter, a charging base, and a data transfer connection.

Benefits

  • Clear and readable transflective display enables use in dimly lit or sun-glare scenarios
  • Responds promptly to small changes in radiation whilst also being capable of making accurate and reliable readings in hot zone fields up to 1Sv/h
  • Powered by commercially available rechargeable or replaceable batteries
  • Secure NFC data download via charging dock also with USB C connection
  • PED2+ and PED2-IS+ are BLE and GPS enabled, have enhanced alarm messaging, and can operate in off-body mode for handheld surveys and perimeter monitoring tasks
  • Intrinsically safe variants (PED2-IS and PED2-IS+) cater for use in hazardous areas
  • DoseVision™ companion software with optional cloud ecosystem

Applications

  • Emergency responders and security services
  • Offshore and onshore oil and gas
  • Industrial radiography
  • Border control and military (CBRNe)
  • Nuclear and decommissioning
  • Medical and life sciences
  • Mining

FAQ: PED2-IS – Intrinsically Safe Personal Dosimeter

What is a Personal Dosimeter used for?

It is a device worn by personnel that measures and records the cumulative radiation dose received over a period, ensuring compliance with occupational radiation safety limits.

What does “Intrinsically Safe (IS)” mean?

IS certification means the device is designed to not ignite a flammable atmosphere (gas, vapor, dust) under normal or fault conditions, making it safe for use in hazardous areas (e.g., refineries).

**Errors and omissions excepted (E&OE)
