MiniTRACE CSDF is a unique multipurpose meter for contamination control, survey, dose rate and XRays radiation measurement.
The MiniTRACE CSDF is a multipurpose instrument fulfilling the functions of a contamination, survey and dose rate meter. It is designed to improve the detection and the quantification of radiation contamination, making this a frontline tool in the protection against uncontrolled distribution of radioactive material. MiniTRACE CSDF provides several functions and measurement modes such as the dose rate, the activity or the count rate.
With the activity and surface contamination modes, different nuclides can be selected from the inbuilt library. The surface contamination mode is calibrated according to ISO 7503-1. Combined with the right accessories, wipe tests (surface contamination) and food tests (food contamination) can be performed. A mean value mode and a count up mode are provided to increase instrument accuracy.

Easy and fast monitoring
• MiniTRACE CSDF is easy to use (2 buttons interface) and provides a very fast response time (1sec.). It can also be set up with the optional DataVIEW software.
All-in-one survey meter
• MiniTRACE CSDF allows multipurpose measurements for dose rate H*(10) (µSv/h), count rate (cps), activity (Bq), surface contamination (Bq/cm²) and food contamination (Bq/L). Radionuclide can also be selected.
Designed for harsh environments
• MiniTRACE CSDF is compact and robust with its strong housing protected with a rubber boot. It is suitable for long time operations (battery lifetime: 2,000 h).
MiniTRACE CSDF is a unique multipurpose meter for contamination, survey, dose rate, XRays, food and wipe test measurements. It is equipped with a 15.55 cm² Geiger-Mueller pancake detector and a 0.8 mm stainless steel grid. In addition to the verification of contamination, it is ideally suited to measuring the environmental dose rate equivalent (H*(10)).
MiniTRACE CSDF displays values in cps, μSv/h, Bq, Bq/cm² and Bq/L. For the Bq and Bq/cm² modes, the user can select different nuclides with built in nuclide specific calibration library (Cs137, Am241, I131, Sr90, U238, C14, Cl36, Co60).
The Bq/cm² mode (for surface contamination) is calibrated according to ISO 7503-1. MiniTRACE CSDF offers a special mode for food measurement: it measures the activity level found in the liquid or smashed food, with a state-of-the-art food measuring kit.

• Transparent plastic protection
• Belt pouch
• Suitcase (Pelicase)
• Wipe test kit
• Food measuring kit
• Emergency case
• Pressure-tight container for air transport
