There is no technical reason to calibrate a dosimeter at any one particular sound level, and dosimeters may be calibrated at a number of different levels. The important thing is that the calibration includes sound levels relevant to the noise that will be measured.
One particular model of calibrator happens to produce a sound of 114 dB. Others use 93 dB and other levels

No, alpha particles will not be detected by dosimeter badges.
They are invented by NASA.
A pen dosimeter is a dosimeter the size and shape of a pen. In many cases they are radiation quartz fiber dosimeters made during the cold war for civil defense workers in the case of a nuclear attack. Of these the CD V-742 is the most common with over three million being produced.
Radiac. There are many different kinds of radiac that operate by different principles; some are geiger-mueller counter, scintillation counter, ionization chamber, electroscope dosimeter, filmbadge dosimeter.

A dosimeter based on sensitized film is one kind of radiation dosimeter, but there are other different kinds, and film badges are becoming less common. One widely known dosimeter is the direct read "pen style" electroscope dosimeter. Another "pen style" dosimeter is a miniature ionization chamber, but like the film badge dosimeter requires special equipment to read it later in a lab. Probably the most commonly used type of dosimeter outside of emergency response is the TLD, or thermoluminescent dosimeter.
A dosimeter is an instrument that measures the amount of hazardous material to which something or someone has been cumulatively exposed. The most common is the radiation dosimeter, which measures a person's or object's exposure to radiation.

This is the HVAC actuator. I am having my recirculater actuator replaced today. It is a similar problem . Makes that thumping rythmic noise. Can't stand the noise anymore. If it is the recirculatoer actuator the noise will stop when you push the air recirculater on. From what I understand this part has to be calibrated so I have to take it in to get it done.

It is calibrated by puttin it in some ice.
