About GAMMA-SCOUT

For around 25 years, GAMMA-SCOUT GmbH & Co. KG has developed and produced the GAMMA-SCOUT radiation measuring device family exclusively in Germany. The compact Geiger counters measure alpha, beta and gamma radiation over a wide measuring range of 0.01 to 1,000 microsieverts per hour and operate continuously thanks to a patented power-saving concept with battery life spanning years. All models feature a USB interface, internal memory for up to 32,000 measured values, and evaluation via the included TOOLBOX software for Windows and Mac OS X. Every device undergoes a verified calibration whose final inspection is monitored by the Institute for Radiation Protection of a public university of applied sciences. The products comply with the European CE standard as well as the US FCC-15 standard. The offering includes calibration, repair, software downloads and support through a network of trading partners.

Quality & Calibration

Every measuring device undergoes a final inspection with calibration that is monitored by the Institute for Radiation Protection of a public university of applied sciences. The devices under test must lie within the 5% confidence interval of a master device that has been aligned against a calibrated Cs-137 source.
