Description
This Handheld Geiger Counter Dosimeter Nuclear Radiation Detector is a device that uses a Geiger-Miller counter to measure the intensity of ionizing radiation in your environment. Ionizing radiation can come from various sources, such as nuclear power plants, radiology laboratories, geological surveys, inspection vehicles, home improvement projects and so on. Exposure to high levels of ionizing radiation can cause serious health problems, such as cancer, genetic mutations and radiation sickness.
Working Principle
Utilizing the Geiger-Miller sensor, the geiger muller counter detects Gamma, Beta and X-rays with an energy range of 48KeV-1.5MeV ≤ ± 30%(for 137Csγ). A gas tube or small chamber acts as a probe, generating electric pulses when ionization occurs. These pulses are recorded by the connected electronic device, providing real-time measurements of radiation levels.
Smart Alarm System
Navigate through the alarm setting options to define both current and cumulative dose thresholds. Whether the detector is in operation or sleep mode, the Nuclear Radiation Detector provides automatic alerts when the detected radiation surpasses the preset threshold. Choose from three combined alarm modes—light, vibration, and sound—for enhanced safety awareness.
Multifunctional Geiger Counter
Beyond radiation detection, the Geiger Counter offers a range of functionalities. Set the system clock, unit (uSv or mR), language and backlight brightness. The user-friendly design allows for one-handed operation, making it a practical tool for various applications.
Large LCD Screen
The Handheld Geiger Counter has a large LCD screen that shows the current dose, accumulated dose, dose rate, battery level and alarm status. It can display the cumulative dose equivalent from 0.00uSv-500.0mSv and the dose rate from 0.00uSv/h-5000uSv/h.
User Friendly Pocket Size
The geiger muller counter has a low battery indicator and an automatic power-off function to save battery life. And It has a compact and ergonomic design that fits comfortably in your hand. It comes with a lanyard and a protective case for easy carrying and storage.

What are the hazards of nuclear radiation?
- Nuclear radiation has serious effects on human health, causing dementia, high blood pressure, heart disease and reduced immunity, as well as damage to the blood and nervous system.
- The harm of nuclear radiation on the human body is mainly chronic damage to the disease, prolonged use of computers, exposure to objects with radiation, long-term exposure to high radiation environment to make the human body organs suffer serious damage.
- Radiation generally greater than 100msv is harmful to humans.
- Radiation doses between 100-500msv for a long time will reduce the number of white blood cells in the human blood.
- Radiation doses in the range of 1000-2000msv may cause symptoms such as fatigue, vomiting or anorexia.
- If the radiation dose is 2000-4000msv, the number of red and white blood cells in the human blood will be significantly reduced and internal bleeding may occur.
