Convert Microsieverts per hour to Kilograys per hour

Convert Microsieverts per hour (µSv/h) to Kilograys per hour (kGy/h) instantly and accurately.

Microsieverts per hour (µSv/h)
Kilograys per hour (kGy/h)

Conversion Formula

kGy/h = µSv/h × 1.000000000e-9

About Microsieverts per hour

The microsievert per hour (µSv/h) equals 1e-6 Sv/h = 1e-6 Gy/h for photon radiation (wR = 1). The universal display unit of personal electronic dosimeters and ambient dose-equivalent rate monitors: typical outdoor background 0.08-0.3 µSv/h; IAEA precautionary action level is 100 µSv/h; occupational continuous limit ≈2.3 µSv/h. 1 µSv/h = 1 µGy/h for photons.

About Kilograys per hour

The kilogray per hour (kGy/h) equals 1e3 Gy/h ≈ 0.278 Gy/s. Industrial radiation processing standard: food irradiation conveyors using ⁶⁰Co or electron beam deliver 1-20 kGy/h; medical device sterilisation tunnels are calibrated in kGy/h; IAEA guidelines for industrial irradiation facilities specify throughput in kGy/h. 1 kGy/h = 1e3 Gy/h.
