1. M0-2 type Dosimeter CInteg-aldosimeter)
Development of Dosimeters for the USSR
in East Germany
a. 500 dosimeters ordered from East Germany are under construction at the
VEB Geraetebau, Karl-Marx-Stadt. By 1 December 1954, the order was 75%
completed and the firm was only waiting for the following components to
finish the task:
25X1
(1) Resistances and condensors from the VEB Kondensatorenfabrik, Gera;
(2) 1000 high--resistance ceramic switches from the VEB Schalterbau Dorfheim;
(3) Dry batteries )
) from the Soviet Union
(4) Tubes, type lE1P (I3I11) )
The dry batteries were expected in December 1954, and the tubes by the end of
January 1955. The delivery date of the completed devices to the Soviet Union
was expected to be not before the end of March 1955.
b. By the end of November 1954, 30,000 of the 150,000 ionization chambers
required for the 500 MO-2 dosimeters had been completed.
2. KL-type Dosimeters
Ii was anticipated that the first 100 KL-type dosimeters, under construction pt, the
VEB EFEM (Entwicklung tend Fertigung Elektrische Messinstrumente), East Berlir ,
would be ready for delivery by the end of January 1955. The remaining 1400 wc._.:
scheduled to be delivered not later than the end of the first quarter of 1955.
