Dosimeter Digital (Product Code: SCL249/041) is a digital radiation dosimeter used to measure accumulated dose during radioactivity and radiation-safety lessons in school and college physics labs. It reads from 0.1 µSv to 1 000 µSv, weighs no more than 200 g and comes with batteries, so it is ready to use on arrival. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, alongside other nuclear physics lab equipment for teaching.

A useful first activity is to leave the dosimeter on a bench for a lesson and read the dose from natural background radiation, which gives the class a baseline for everything that follows. The teacher can then place it near a sealed school source for a fixed time and compare the reading, before repeating the exposure at a greater distance or behind a sheet of shielding to show how dose falls off. Turning these readings into everyday comparisons helps students see why time, distance and shielding are the three rules of radiation safety.
Teachers who handle sources can also carry the dosimeter during practical sessions as a check on their own accumulated dose. Keep it away from strong heat and moisture, switch it off or remove the batteries for long storage, and log readings so the data can be reused in later lessons. It pairs well with a Geiger counter in any radiation experiment kit for India's senior secondary classes.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, supplies this dosimeter to schools, colleges and distributors together with its radioactivity apparatus. For vendor and import-export records, the supplying company's Importer-Exporter Code is AAECJ8618A (DGFT) and its GSTIN is 06AAECJ8618A1ZT. See the company profile for more information.

What dose range does it measure?
The Dosimeter Digital measures dose from 0.1 µSv to 1 000 µSv and shows the result on a digital display, giving students a direct number for background radiation and for classroom exposure experiments.
Are batteries included?
Yes. Batteries are included with the Dosimeter Digital, so it can be used as soon as it arrives. For long storage between terms, remove the batteries or switch the unit off to avoid unnecessary drain.
Is a calibration certificate available?
A calibration certificate is not stated on the Dosimeter Digital listing. If your institution needs calibration documentation, please contact us before ordering so we can tell you what can be provided with the unit.
Can it be used for official occupational dose records?
The Dosimeter Digital is listed for teaching use. If you need a dosimeter for regulated personal monitoring of radiation workers, discuss your requirements with us before ordering rather than relying on this classroom instrument.
Does it replace a Geiger counter?
Not entirely. The Dosimeter Digital totals the dose received, while a Geiger counter counts individual events and suits count-rate experiments, so many physics departments use both instruments in the same radioactivity practical.
Who supplies the Dosimeter Digital?
The Dosimeter Digital is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India. Send the product code SCL249/041, quantity and delivery location through the contact page for a quotation within India or to international markets.
