Why RF Protection is Essential for On-Site Safety
RF exposure is a recognised hazard and legislation requires limiting exposure to high levels thereof.
Responsibility
It is the employer’s responsibility to ensure that workers are not exposed to levels of RF exceeding the occupational limits for RF trained workers and public limits.
Knowledge
At sites with antennas there is no visible way of knowing what the power levels are so a Personal RF Monitor is required to know what the accumulated level of exposure is.
Action
Measuring the exposure conditions allows any worker to quickly quantify and move away from the risk area to a safe area.
Our Range of Personal RF Monitors
FieldSENSE devices provide RF-trained workers with real-time detection of radio frequency (RF) exposure from multiple sources, enabling clear monitoring and assessment of RF exposure conditions in occupational environments.

Understanding RF Safety – The Foundation of Protection
In telecommunications systems, antennas are used to transmit and receive RF, with the highest levels found in close proximity to transmitting antennas. As you move farther away, RF levels decrease but the amount of power being transmitted plays a key role in how far elevated exposure zones can extend. As a result, there may be areas around transmitting antennas where RF levels exceed recommended occupational safe working limits. Our free Introduction to RF Safety Around Transmitting Antennas guide provides more information on RF exposure, safety limits, and how to work safely around transmitting antennas.
