Polimaster Dose Tracking System is intended to provide acute dose information for the personnel and operators, working with the X-ray scanning equipment.
This information is complementary to any security monitoring system, provided by X-ray scanning equipment. The flexibility of the system allows for precise configuration and user set up to address dose monitoring needs for both X-ray system operators and personnel, frequently scanned by Personnel Security Screening Systems.
All data are stored in the internal database with an option of exporting data to remote centralized data analysis and storage.
Operation Principle
Polimaster Dose Tracking System is intended to provide acute dose information for the personnel and operators, working with the X-ray scanning equipment. This information is complementary to any security monitoring system, provided by X-ray scanning equipment. The flexibility of the system allows for precise configuration and user set up to address dose monitoring needs for both X-ray system operators and personnel, frequently scanned by Personnel Security Screening Systems. All data are stored in the internal database with an option of exporting data to remote centralized data analysis and storage.
The Personal Dose Tracker software is designed to work with personal dosimeters:
Wrist Gamma Dosimeters РМ1603А/B
Electronic Personal Dosimeters PM1604/A/B
X-Ray and Gamma Personal Dosimeters PM1610/01/A
Key Functions
• User database creation (up to 100 user cards);
• User division into groups (i.e. administrators, operators, users);
• Access permission settings for each group of users and setting of threshold values for all groups of users;
• Access permission and threshold settings for each user individually;
• Group and user accounts management (movement, editing);
• Events information reading and instruments history storage in database;
• Reading and recording of operating parameters of the instrument online;
• Creation of radiation monitoring general information system on the basis of events read from the instruments included in the system;
• Creation and printing of reports and figures, formed on the basis of the database information concerning the selected user or group of users.
When use of Dose Tracking System is necessary?
Even though internal radiation safety policies may vary from organization to organization all of them follow general guidelines from local, State or Federal authorities. Generally, if the annual acute Dose is below 1 mSv, special dose monitoring and accounting is not needed. If the annual acute dose is between 1 mSv and 5 mSv, dose monitoring and accounting is recommended. If the annual acute dose is above 5 mSv, dose monitoring and accounting is highly recommended and even mandatory in some countries.
If the dose monitoring and accounting procedures are in place, every employee who is working directly with gamma and x-ray emitting equipment have to wear Personal Dosimeter continuously monitoring Dose he/she receives.
