CSM-GR1™
Continuous Spectroscopic Monitor
Manufactured by:
The Spectroscopy Division
The CSM-GR1 Continuous Spectroscopic Monitor is a very small, yet powerful, in situ measurement system based on standard and well-established Canberra™ gamma spectroscopy components.
Features
- The compact size and remote operation capability of the CSM-GR1 monitor allows it to fit into small spaces while the operator is at a safe distance away
- Results available immediately – no waiting for sample collection, processing and analysis in the count room
- Data shows short term variations in nuclide concentrations that are not discernible with typical 4 or 8 hour grab samples
- No cooling fans in the electronics eliminates risk of internal contamination
- Quick installation for minimal dose, with no additional dose incurred during operation
- User can easily create new efficiency calibrations (pipes, tanks, stacks, etc.) on the PC and upload them to the Data Analyst™ module for immediate use
- Compatible Mirion WRM2™ Wireless modules and Horizon® Supervisory System software
- GR1+ unit, shield and PC can be used without the DA module for conventional in-situ spectroscopic analysis of plant components:
- Waste assay – containers and objects
- Evaluation of spills or leaks
- Assay of filters
- As part of an Emergency Response Kit
Description
The CSM-GR1 Monitor includes:
- GR1+ Compact CZT Spectrometer with 2% FWHM for easy nuclide ID
- GR1-SHIELD Tungsten Shield and 3 collimators - only 8.6 kg (19 lb.)
- GR1-ACC Carbon fiber tripod & carrying case (optional)
- Data Analyst module with:
- Trusted Genie 2000™ and ISOCS™ algorithms for data processing and analysis
- Ability to perform multiple analyses simultaneously with different count times, nuclide libraries, and analysis parameters
- Web-based GUI for control and data review
- Support for Mirion EcoGamma™ monitor if local dose rate also needed along with spectral data
- Wired Ethernet, USB and wireless communications
- GPS for environmental measurement location coordinates
- Internal memory for local storage of months of spectral results
- Also compatible with:
- Lynx® DSA and HPGe detectors
- Osprey® Tube Base MCA and scintillation detectors
- PC or Tablet for set-up, results viewing and data archival
- Requires Genie 2000 and ISOCS software for data reanalysis or generation of ISOCS geometry models
- Allows user to quickly generate new efficiency calibrations using ISOCS software
- PC connection not necessary for data acquisition as Data Analyst module starts operation upon power up
Applications for which the CSM-GR1 monitor excels include:
- Determining migration of nuclide species in primary coolant during operation and shutdown
- Measurement and tracking of radioactive liquid or gas effluents
- Processing operations such as water clean-up, filter build-up or chemical decontamination
- Waste processing such as direct resin bed measurements and waste container assay
- Nuclide identification/quantification in high dose rate glove box measurements
- Emergency response inside or outside the facility
The CSM-GR1 monitor is the perfect solution for various in situ measurement applications in and around your facility. Its real-time results can augment and/or replace grab sampling and lab counting processes, thus reducing dose and costs while increasing safety.
