Overview The X5C plus SE is a compact, easy-to-use dose rate meter with an audible alarm for personal radiation protection and for detection of dose rate and ambient dose. The instrument is distributed by QUART.
Measurement capabilities The X5C plus SE measures gamma radiation and X‑rays to determine the ambient dose equivalent H*(10) and the corresponding ambient (local) dose. The internal detector is an energy‑compensated GM tube, delivering reliable readings across the specified energy range.
