RADIATION MONITORS
FEATURES
ƒ
Automatic adaptation to the varying natural background
ƒ
Archival storage of the alarm event data: date, time, detector count rate, channel type (gamma or neutron). An
optional video monitoring system provides a record of the alarm-causing object.
ƒ
Gamma detector: an organic plastic scintillator
(Yantar-1U – 1 item, 888х130х40 mm / Yantar-2U – 2 items, 888х130х40 mm, each)
ƒ
Neutron detector: proportional 3He counters
ƒ
Operating temperature: from -50° to+ 50°C
ƒ
Compliance with EMC requirements for nuclear instruments
ƒ
Lightning protection of power and signal lines
ƒ
Possible integration of up to 16 systems of different types into a single information network without extra
hardware and software
ƒ
Possible remote access
ƒ
Developed self-diagnostics system
BASIC SET
The basic set consists of:
ƒ
Pillars with detectors and electronic units
ƒ
Control panel (an IBM PC can be used instead).
A video monitoring system, a modem, additional alarm devices, traffic lights, a road barrier, and software (data base,
videoregistration, operation in local network) are optional.
