Vehicle Radiation Monitor

Download Datasheet

This stationary vehicle radiation monitor solution is designed to detect sources of gamma and neutron radiation in vehicles crossing access control points.

Description

Atomtex AT2327 Vehicle Radiation Monitor uses smart probes, which detect gamma and neutron radiation. This device is used to monitor and control access points into a site or facility. The system screens rear walls of gamma radiation detection unit by lead plates, automatically adjusts set threshold levels according to changes to natural background radiation levels, has a backup power source and automatically logs data.

Selected areas of application:

  • Access control points
  • Nuclear industry facilities
  • Scrap metal salvage and reprocessing facilities and smelters
  • Public utility companies for solid domestic waste disposal

Features

  • Automatic switching from background radiation measurement to detection when the control zone line is crossed by a passing vehicle.
  • Rear semi sphere of smart probes is screened by lead plates
  • Automatic correction of set threshold levels according to changes in natural radiation background
  • Sound and light alarm system for exceeded threshold levels
  • Self-testing of components during operation
  • Ability to withstand severe operating conditions
  • Count rate levels and cases of threshold crossing are automatically recorded into the history log
  • Backup power supply with a fully charged battery can provide continuous operation for up to 6 hours (4 smart probes)
