SN-D-2™
Neutron Dose Probe
The SN-D-2 probe for measurement of neutron dose equivalent rate is designed to be used with any CSP survey meter or any computer-based system developed within CSP environment.
Features
- Neutron H*(10) Dose Equivalent Rate
- Complies with public limit controls
- Belongs to CSP™ family
- Calibration via PC
- Easy to carry
- Excellent fit of IEC 61005 and ICRP-74 starting from thermal energies
SN-D-2 probe is part of Canberra™ Smart Probe (CSP) family, that drives numerous benefits, such as plug and play capabilities and exceptional readiness for field operations. Please refer to the “hand-held probes” brochure for further details.
Description
The SN-D-2 probe for measurement of neutron dose equivalent rate is designed to be used with any CSP survey meter or any computer-based system developed within a CSP environment. Its 8 atm 3He gas detector associated with a 200 mm polyethylene sphere, brings a best-in-class neutron efficiency and, an excellent Gamma rejection.
SN-D-2 probe’s lightweight makes it an ideal tool for direct measurement of neutron ambient dose equivalent in reactor buildings during outages or on spent fuel transportation containers, prior to shipment to a reprocessing plant. A specific tripod can accommodate various heights and distances to the measurement scene while the user remains at a safe area with remote control, supporting ALARA principle.
Its measurement range starting from 300 nSv/h allows controlling neutron public limits within less than a minute. Most CSP meters can also improve MDA with the use of scaler-timer function whenever necessary. The top of range ending at 100 mSv/h supports occupational dose-rate monitoring in radiation controlled area.
The SN-D-2 probe includes an embedded carrying handle making it easy to move to the area to be monitored. Dedicated meter holders adapt each of the available host instruments to complete the probe as a one hand operational system. It can also be connected via CSP-COM™ modules to integrate a third-party system and behave as a neutron sub-assembly.
SN-D-2 probe can be calibrated and upgraded (probe’s firmware) via CSPS™ software, a USB cable and a PC. It connects to the survey meter via a 1.5 meter, 10 meter or 20 meter CSP cable.
