Dosimeter-radiometer MKS-08 is a portable multifunctional professional device to use for dosimetry and radiometry monitoring of the radiation situation.
Universality, simplicity of operation with dosimeter-radiometer and reliability of all components are ensured the widespread popularity of MKS-08 among professionals.
Measurement consoles of MKS-08 - UIK-05, UIK-05-01 and UIK-06 - have improved of modern effective operation modes:
- Search and detection of ionizing radiation sources;
- Express-estimation of radiation level due to one, two, three setting thresholds.
MKS-08 is adapted to the requirements of methodological instructions (see Article «Algorithms of the search») in which are given recommendations to make measurements and control the contamination level of radioactive nuclides:
- territories and buildings;
- scrap metal;
- raw materials during the blanking operations;
- building materials.
At the request of the customer we ca make a prior configurations of necessary operation modes.
The detailed description of operation modes and abilities of MKS-08 can be found in the book
«Effective usage MKS-08».
The software from the delivery set MKS-08 allows to send the measurement results from the inner archive to personal computer by USB-cable.
Using MKS-08 together with the optional global positioning system (GPS) sensor or GPS-block allows to radiation survey of the area with geo-references and astronomic time. The archive data can be exported in various GIS systems.
The dosimeter-radiometer includes one of the measurement consoles: UIK-05, UIK-05-01 or UIK-06.
UIK-05 (Figure 1) has a metal case providing increased resistance to external mechanical stress and a battery-type power supply.
UIK-05-01 (Figure 1) has a metal case providing increased resistance to external mechanical stress and a accumulator-type power supply.
UIK-06 (Figure 2) is a handheld version, significantly reduced in size and weight compared to the UIK-05, with controls that are convenient for working in mobile conditions. Built-in rechargeable power supply. The presence of a leather case and a set of fastening straps provide increased convenience of working with small-sized detection units that are part of the dosimeter-radiometer (BDMG-96, BDZA-96t, BDZB-96s).

Operation conditions
The ambient temperature is from minus 40 to plus 50°C.
The relative air humidity up to 95% at 35°C.
Purpose
The dosimeter-radiometer is used to solve the following tasks:
- Radiation control:
- measurement ambient equivalent dose rate Ḣ*(10) and ambient equivalent dose Ḣ*(10) of X-ray and gamma (including pulsing) radiation;
- measurement ambient equivalent dose rate Ḣ*(10) and ambient equivalent dose Ḣ*(10) continues gamma (including pulsing) radiation;
- measurement ambient equivalent dose rate Ḣ*(10) and ambient equivalent dose Ḣ*(10) neutron-radiation.
- measurement of flux density of alpha-, beta-, gamma-radiation.
- Search and localization of sources and fields of ionization radiation.
- Gamma-ray logging is a measurement of the flow of gamma radiation and the exposure dose rate of gamma radiation in wells, pits and in liquid technological environments.
- Radiation survey of the area with binding of the measurement results to the geographical coordinates of the area (with a GPS sensor).
