AT1315

Gamma and Beta Radiation Spectrometer

Download Datasheet

This two channel scintillation gamma and beta spectrometer is designed for simultaneous and selective detection of the 137Cs, 134Сs, 131I and 90Sr radionuclide specific activity in natural samples and specific effective activity of 40К, 226Ra, 232Th in construction materials. It can be used for rapid radioactive purity determination of standardized sample heat of metal.

Description

The Atomtex AT1315 operates based on measurement and processing of gamma and beta radiation, detecting by standalone detection units, into amplitude distributions, which is digitised and stored. This spectrometer can be delivered without the beta channel as per customer request.

Selected areas of application:

  • Measuring of 137Сs, 134Сs, 131I, 90Sr, 40K, 226Ra, 232Th radionuclides activity
  • Spectrometric and radiometric monitoring of radionuclide content in water, foods, agricultural raw materials, industrial, construction and forestry materials, environmental objects (soil, vegetation, etc.), metallurgical industry produce and products of other industries.

For more details, refer to datasheet or contact us directly.

Features:

  • 1024-channel analogue-to-digital converter is integrated into smart probes
  • Continuous automatic LED stabilisation of spectrometric path in measurement mode
  • Calibration integrity monitoring by means of integrated radioisotope check sample under the minimum significant activity
  • Computer spectra processing with maximum likelihood method
  • Automatic recording of sample density
  • Spectra metering with on-line visualization
  • Simultaneous spectra metering and processing
  • Methodological support of measurements
