Tracerco PEDs must be calibrated with the display screen facing the radiation beam. The position of the GM-tube
detector is clearly marked by the detector window near the bottom of the front face. An ISO phantom or suitable
correction factor should be employed during calibration.
Attention: The calibration is invalid if the PED is not worn on the torso when operating as a dosimeter. PEDs must
not be used as a handheld device unless it is set to handheld mode (PED+ and PED-ER+ only).
PEDs can display a warning message to alert that calibration is due. However, this feature is disabled by default on
PEDs except the PED-IS. The next calibration due date can be found in the monitor details screen if the feature is
enabled. Calibration contact details are also contained here.
All Tracerco PEDs are checked and calibrated immediately prior to dispatch and the next calibration due date is set
in the PED.
4.6 PED-IS repairs
Attention: Repair of a PED-IS must be carried out by suitably trained personnel only and in accordance with the
applicable code of practice such as IEC/EN 60079-19. All parts used in the repair of a PED-IS must be supplied by
Tracerco.
4.7 Accessories
Accessories such as transit cases, protective leather holders, travel chargers and lanyards are available. For further
