MTM RAD Tactical Watch
For Radiation Detection
This RAD tactical watch includes a counter for detecting harmful ionizing radiation. Designed by MTM, a supplier of timepieces worn by U.S. military personnel, the RAD ’s integrated Geiger-Müller tube measures single-dose gamma ray levels, as well as cumulative exposure. The ultra- sensitive detector tracks dose equivalents – from 0.0001 to 9999 millisieverts (mSv), and the dose equivalent rate up to 4000 microsieverts per hour (μSv/h). Users can set their maximum radiation threshold, up to 9999 mSv, and an alarm will sound when this level (user preset) has been reached. Radiation levels are displayed graphically and can also be shown in the digital display, which can be switched between dose equivalent rate, accumulated dose, and the time. The time is shown via tritium illuminated analog hour, minute, plus a second hand. The digital display is EL backlit. The RAD is water resistant to 330’ and powered by a lithium battery. The rugged nylon band fits wrists up to 9 inches in circumference. The watch case measures 46mm in diameter by 19.75mm in height (3.75 oz.) and has a suggested retail price of $1500. The RAD tactical watch will be available soon, exclusively from MTM Tactical Watch.
