Built-in sensors

IR-interface for software communication

Easy and fast monitoring

MiniTRACE CSDF is easy to use (2 buttons interface) and provides a very fast response time (1sec.). It can also be set up with the optional DataVIEW software

All-in-one survey meter

MiniTRACE CSDF allows multipurpose measurements for dose rate H*(10) (µSv/h), count rate (cps), activity (Bq), surface contamination (Bq/cm²) and food contamination (Bq/L). Radionuclide can also be selected

Designed for harsh environments

MiniTRACE CSDF is compact and robust with its strong housing protected with a rubber boot. It is suitable for long time operations (battery lifetime: 2,000 h)

MiniTRACE CSDF is a unique multipurpose meter for contamination, survey, dose rate, XRays, food and wipe test measurements. It is equipped with a 15.55 cm² Geiger-Mueller pancake detector and a 0.8 mm stainless steel grid. In addition to the verification of contamination, it is ideally suited to measuring the environmental dose rate equivalent (H*(10)).

MiniTRACE CSDF displays values in cps, μSv/h, Bq, Bq/cm² and Bq/L. For the Bq and Bq/cm² modes, the user can select different nuclides with built in nuclide specific calibration library (Cs137, Am241, I131, Sr90, U238, C14, Cl36, Co60).

The Bq/cm² mode (for surface contamination) is calibrated according to ISO 7503-1. MiniTRACE CSDF offers a special mode for food measurement: it measures the activity level found in the liquid or smashed food, with a state-of-the-art food measuring kit.

• Protective rubber cover (included)
• Communication kit (incl. DataVIEW software and IR transceiver)
• Transparent plastic protection

• Belt pouch
• Suitcase (Pelicase)
• Wipe test kit

• Food measuring kit
• Emergency case
• Pressure-tight container for air transport
