CRONOS®-1PBG
The Cronos-1PBG Beta/Gamma Object/Tool Monitor is an extremely sensitive instrument to detect beta and gamma emitting radioactive contamination on small objects such as notebooks, keys, tools, hard hats, and other items which can be placed in the counting chamber.
Features
- Detection of beta and gamma emitting radioactive contamination (with beta/gamma discrimination)
- Robust and ergonomic design
- Easy-to-use interface and software
- Counting chamber volume of 42,9 L (1.5 cu. ft)
- 12 large surface area thin plastic scintillation (TPS) detectors (two detectors each side)
- Removable 25 mm (~1 in.) and optional 50 mm (~2 in.) thick lead ingot shielding around the counting chamber (six sides)
- One-door or two-doors operation modes
- Radionuclide vectors/transfer function for the gamma channel
- Automatic or manual selection of transmission correction factors (with weight scale option)
- Adjustable upper level discriminator to reduce/optimize count time
- Same “industry-best” software and serial bus electronics across Cronos®-4/11, Argos™-3/5, Sirius™-5 and GEM™-5 family; no re-training needed
- Windows® 10 IoT operating system with LAN capability and USB ports
- WebRemote® enabled: provides an ergonomic and easy-to- use touch screen graphical user interface; accessible locally or via PC/tablet web browser
- Algorithm based on the Gaussian or Bayesian statistics (compliant with ISO 11929:2010 standard)
Description
The Cronos-1PBG Beta/Gamma Object/Tool Monitor is an extremely sensitive instrument to detect beta and gamma emitting radioactive contamination on small objects such as notebooks, keys, tools, hard hats, and other items which can be placed in the counting chamber. Short count times and high efficiency make the Cronos-1PBG, the ideal tool for the implementation of the “Empty Pocket” policy in your facility.
Cronos-1PBG monitors use a sophisticated “fast following” background trending and release-limit algorithm to provide the best performance in a stable or varying radiation field. The included WebRemote® software provides an easy-to-use touch screen graphical user interface for improved health physics programs, better tracking of contamination and faster throughput.
Cronos®-1PBG monitors are rugged and reliable, and are designed for use in industrial environments.
