Today PLA has all the infrastructure under one roof required for development, manufacturing /supplying, technical support, installing & servicing of radiation monitors. This includes in-house radiation calibration lab having various radioactive isotopes of different energies, activities and
sizes, certified radiation safety officers, experienced engineers, latest electronic equipment,
mechanical workshop, environmental test setup and software development facility.
PLA has entered into Radiation Monitoring Instruments since 1973 by developing Health Physics
Instrumentation. With it's strong R&D and manufacturing background, PLA has kept on expanding it's
product line since then. Instruments such as Survey Meter, Area Monitor, Hand Monitor and whole body
monitors were introduced.
In 1986, PLA developed Mil grade radiation detection equipments like Roentgenometer & Flash Sensor.
Subsequently, Portable Doserate Meter & Pocket Dosimeter were developed. In the year 1987, PLA
entered into development of control panel for underground NBC field shelters.
PLA has started manufacturing & supplying various types of survey & contamination meters to various
emergency response forces since 2003 for Nuclear emergency preparedness.
PLA has Established India's first AERB-recognized Calibration Lab for radiation measuring
equipments with range up to 5 R/h in 2012.
Thereafter in 2015, PLA Established second AERB-recognized Calibration Lab for radiation measuring
equipments with range up to 100 R/h.
PLA acquired NABL accreditation for both labs in 2019, & became India’s highest range calibration
Lab with range up to 500 R/h.
In 2024, Calibration range of the Lab was further extended up to 1000 R/h to cover high range of
instruments like Teletectors.
PLA is always on lookout for any new designs, ideas, technologies and dedicated to supply the most
reliable quality instruments with state of the art designs.
