DatasheetThe Mirion DMC 3000 PTB Autonom is a compact electronic personal dosemeter for measuring the deep personal dose Hp(10) from X-ray and gamma radiation. With its excellent energy response in the range of 15 keV to 7 MeV, triple alarm indication (acoustic, visual, and vibration), and convenient autonomous operating mode without additional accessories, the DMC 3000 impresses with simple operation and high reliability. The PTB type examination certificate ensures legally compliant applicability in Germany.

Optional accessories
- LDM 3200: Access control reader including LDM Access software, panel PC with touchscreen, dosemeter reader, keyboard, and barcode reader
- DosiServ Lite: Electronic dosimetry management software for healthcare facilities and research institutions
Autonomous Operating Mode
The DMC 3000 PTB Autonom operates autonomously and can be used without accessories. The user makes settings and changes directly on the dosemeter. The intuitive menu navigation via two push buttons (+/–) and the LC display enables quick configuration of all parameters. Even in autonomous mode, a dosemeter reader with corresponding software can optionally be used for configuration.
Conformity Assessment
The conformity assessment of this measuring instrument replaces the former initial verification. Under current law, only the distributor can initiate the conformity assessment and issue the declaration of conformity. The initial verification after 2 years can also be commissioned by the user.
Note: The commissioning of the dosemeter must be reported to the competent authority within 6 weeks (notification requirement according to § 32 MessEG). The competent authorities provide the user notification on the portal www.eichamt.de.
