Panasonic UD-716AGL User Manual

UD-716AGL TLD Reader: automatically

reads the “UD-800Series” of TLD badges.

The Panasonic compact automatic TLD reader
provides a cost-effective solution for small to
medium dosimetry services or serves as a
backup to the larger
UD-7900M reader.

Its advanced optical heating
system and design means that
it can be conveniently situated
in most office or laboratory
environments as gas supplies
and annealing ovens are not
required.

One-touch operation with advanced self­checking functions means minimal operational
training is required.

Both the photon-counting method (pulse­counting) for small signals and the current
integration method for large signals are
employed to precisely detect the thermo
luminescence throughout a wide range from
low doses to high doses.

The reader is equipped with self-checking
functions for the optical path, sensitivity of PM
tube, heating stability, etc. It also performs
automatic functions such as annealing of the
TL badges for repeat use, optical reading of
the ID code, and sensitivity adjustment correc­tion by the built-in reference light source.
