Sirius™-5

Hand, Cuff and Foot Surface Contamination Monitor

The Mirion Sirius-5 provides thorough and reliable detection of external contamination on the hands and feet of personnel working in nuclear environments.

Tag Features

  • Rugged and reliable for high traffic areas
  • Optimized counting geometry to measure both sides of the hands /cuffs and bottom of feet in one step operation
  • Easy access for maintenance from the top, front and sides. No access to the rear of the unit is required
  • All positioning sensors are solid state devices for increased reliability
  • Superior detector protection, modularity, and diagnostics result in direct reductions in maintenance, repair and operation costs
  • WebRemote enabled: ergonomic and easy-to-use touch screen graphical user interface; accessible locally or via PC / tablet web browser
  • Windows 10 IoT operating system with LAN capability and USB ports
  • Same “industry-best” software and serial bus electronics across Mirion Argos™-3/-5, GEM™-5 and Cronos ® -1/- 4 /-11 monitor families; no re-training needed
  • Compliant with IEC61098 Standard requirements
  • Algorithm based on Gaussian or Bayesian statistics (compliant with the ISO 11929:2010 Standard requirements)

Description

The Mirion Sirius-5 provides thorough and reliable detection of external contamination on the hands and feet of personnel working in nuclear environments. Depending on your monitoring needs, Sirius monitors are designed to use either plastic scintillator (TPS) gasless detectors or patented* gas flow proportional detectors (LFP-579).

With Mirion WebRemote® software, an easy-to-use touch screen graphical user interface for industrial PC-based operation results in improved health physics programs, better tracking of contamination and faster, more thorough personnel throughput at boundary points.

Excellent detector protection, modularity of components, and extensive diagnostics result in direct reductions in maintenance, repair, and operation costs.

Sirius monitors use a sophisticated “fast following” background trending and release-limit algorithm to provide the best performance in a stable or varying radiation field.

Sirius-5 monitors provide the optimum balance between cost and coverage, monitoring the palms, backs of the hands, cuffs and feet in a single step, with a very close counting geometry for the best sensitivity. The detectors are vertically oriented to minimize the possibility of detector contamination.
