A new full automatic PLD system, consisting of a one-element photoluminescent glass and the readout system Toshiba FGD-10, is now commercially available, PTB type tested and introduced into routine monitoring. Mainly because of its glass specific dosimetric properties, the PLD system was found to be superior to film dosemeters and TLD systems. Under the aspect of routine application, the paper discusses the dosimetry system using pulsed UV-laser excitation and the dosimetric properties, such as energy and angular response, random uncertainty and ambient parameters affecting the dose measurement. The main advantages are the low pre-dose of (30±1) uSv of annealed glasses, the low coefficient of variation of 2% at 0.1 mSv which allows to measure doses above 10 p.Sv, the long-term stability of the dose measurement of about 1%, the
