Characteristic Measure
Operational Quantity* Hp(10)
Reproducibility 10% or 1 µSv, whatever is greatest
Dose Rate Range 40 µSv/h – 500 mSv/h
Energy dependence X-/g-rays +/- 30% within N40 – N120
Angular dependence +/- 5% within +/- 5°
+/- 30% within +/- 50°
+200%/-100% within +/- 90°
Temperature dependence +/- 5% within 20-26°C

Battery voltage dependence +/- 2% from fully charged until low battery
shutdown
Response time Less than 1s above 100µSv/h, less than 5s
otherwise
Position on body** On torso outside lead apron
*) Hp(10): Personal dose equivalent at a depth of 10 mm according to ISO 4037.
**) Position on body: The Hp(10) measurement is only valid for a position on the torso
outside any lead apron or other protection. (To estimate effective dose to a user, one
must use other means to estimate things like the environmental radiation situation and the
effectiveness of protection.)
