Area Gamma Monitor
Model: 7048
Application
Tyne's Area Gamma Monitor is a system to continuously measure & monitor gamma radiation at designated locations providing alarm control, self calibration, and data logging functions. It provides local audible and visual alarms as well as control and logging from a central computer.
The system meets stringent nuclear qualification requirements such as radiation high dose, temperature, humidity, EMC/EMI, as well as Category III software.
Specifications
| Detector |
Dual Ion chamber. LND501 and LND50343 to cover range 0.1mR/Hr to 100R/Hr. Compared with GM tubes, which have 5x10^10 counts limit, the Ion chambers have a much longer life and higher reliability. |
| Detector circuit |
The radiation dose test detector signal will transmit to measurement unit via balanced-line transmission. |
| Check source |
Check source with motor drive mechanism. 10uCi Cs137 is built into each detector box. A motor moves the check source close to the detector to check the response/calibration of detector. |
| Measuring Module |
NIM double width module, built using a real-time micro-controller. |
| Alarm Module |
NIM signal width module will provide all the relay and local audible & visible alarm. |
| Remote module |
NEMA type 4 box module with alarm indication, audible alarm, exit sign. It communicates with measuring unit via RS485. |
| Central computer with Data trending, data logging. |
Designed in VB.net. |
| Qualification |
Radiation Dose for detector module Temp/Humidity: 50ºC/95%RH EMC/EMI Software qualification: Category III software |
