Personal RF Monitors
A personal RF monitor is worn on the body and alerts users with sound and vibration when electromagnetic radiation levels become dangerous. Designed to be lightweight, wearable, and highly accurate, these monitors indicate the non-ionizing radiation level with LEDs.
For employees working with electromagnetic fields, a personal RF meter could mean the difference between stepping into light RF exposure and wading into dangerous levels of radiation. Because of this, there are many test standards applicable to these devices to minimize risk while people are using this monitor.These personal RF safety test standards include:
- ACGIH | Occupational & Environmental Health
- ARPANSA - RP3 | Radiation Protection Standard for Max. Exposure Levels
- Brazil ANATEL 303 | Evaluation of the Human Exposure to EMF
- IEEE Std C95.1-2005 | Human Exposure Safety Levels, 3 kHz to 300 GHz
- Canada Safety Code 6 (2015) | Human Exposure Limits, 3 kHz to 300 GHz
- ICNIRP 1998 | Guidelines for Limiting Exposure, 0 kHz to 300 GHz
- EU Directive 2013/35/EU | Minimum Health & Safety Requirements for Worker Exposure
- FCC 1996 | Guideline for Evaluating Environmental Effects of RF Radiation
- Japan RCR STD-38 | Radiofrequency Exposure Protection
