Dosimeter DKS-04

Dosimeter DKS-04 – Soviet professional “post- Chornobyl” dosimeter, produced in a body similar to household dosimeter “Bella”. But, if the range of colours of “Bella” was enough broad, DKS-04 produced only in red colour body. In addition, do not be confuse by low quality plastic body, its bright red “toy” colour and resemblance to his “household younger brother” – Dosimeter DKS-04 is really a professional device with serious performance capabilities.

The “Gamma Sapiens” intellectual gamma radiation detector

Technical characteristics. Usage impressions.

That Lviv “Sparing-Vist” is going to release a new device, I first heard at the end of the past 2011 and, in confidence, I saw it on a computer screen, in the design process. And at the end of this summer I was given the finished device – a small black box with a mini-tablet Samsung Galaxy S, for testing.

Search dosimeter-radiometer MKS-11 GN Spectra

Technical characteristics. Usage impressions.

With the search dosimeter-radiometer MKS 11 “Spectra” I get acquainted just a few days before the trip to Japan (to Fukushima prefecture, affected by the accident at the Fukushima-Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant) at the end of December 2011. SPPE “Sparing-Vist” gave me a pre-production engineering sample for field testing. After a short briefing I was given a cardboard box with the device, pair sets of batteries and charger for them, operating manual, CD with software “Spectralog” and a screwdriver. Before that I had no experience with the equipment of such type and level: the search scintillator and with the function of identification of radionuclides at that, so I was interested to work with the device in real-time use of radioactive contaminated area.

The Radiometer-dosimeter RKS-01 Stora-TU. The New Version

Technical characteristics. Usage impressions.

With the development of dosimeter-radiometer RKS-01 “Stora-TU” became the beginning of history of SPPE “Sparing-Vist”. Later will appear “Terra”, “MKS-U”, “Cadmium”, “Poshuk” and other devices, but then, in the 90s of last century, the newly formed company, consisting of three engineers, entered the market with a single device. And it was the “Stora-TU”. Of course, this was a completely different device that does not have anything in common with the new “Stora”, except the name. But in any case, this devise became a hallmark and a mascot of “Sparing-Vist”. It is already the year 2012 and RKS-01 “Stora-TU” (of course in the new version) produced and sold worldwide.
