6 Benefits and Advantages to LANDAUER Dosimetry Services

EASY TO MANAGE

You don’t need to be an expert in radiation safety to use our secure online portal! Management of your locations, participants, badges, and billing is simple, and our responsive customer service team is on standby to assist.

RELIABLE

Like clockwork, when using our periodic dosimetry service, your new dosimeters arrive by the required date and your reports are loaded into your portal – no extra steps needed! We even include a handy shipping label to make returns easy.

NO MISSED DOSES

Our OSL dosimeters are much more sensitive than typical TLD radiation badges, meaning every dose will be accounted for, every time. With measurements down to 1 mrem for Luxel+ radiation badges, there’s no more “estimating” your employees’ actual exposure.

BUILT TO LAST

We know mistakes happen. That’s why we engineered Luxel+ to be able to withstand being put through the laundry or left in a hot car. And our unique Dynamic Reporting allows us to determine if exposure occurred while the badge was being worn – or left in someone’s locker over the weekend.

PEACE OF MIND

Unlike most other badges on the market, if questions ever arise about exposure or your reports, Luxel+ badges are able to be reread. All data is stored for 75 years, with high dose badges retained forever, and all others for two years.
