Conversion Formula

nSv = krem × 10000000000

About Kilorems

The kilorem (krem) equals 10³ rem = 10 Sv. Used in radiation hardness testing of electronics for space and military: total ionising dose (TID) specifications cite krem(Si) levels; prompt nuclear radiation effects on personnel in nuclear weapons effects literature are quoted in krem. 1 krem = 10 Sv = 10³ rem.

About Nanosieverts

The nanosievert (nSv) equals 10⁻⁹ Sv. Ambient environmental gamma dose rates at sea level are ~30-50 nSv/h; portable radiation survey meters and environmental monitoring networks report ambient dose equivalent rates in nSv/h; airborne gamma spectrometry surveys record deposition rates in nSv/h. 1 nSv = 10⁻⁹ Sv = 10⁻³ µSv.
