Description

With the FoodScreen Radiological Food Screening System, food analysis efficiency is at the forefront of our design. A sample is placed into the shield, a count is initiated and a final report is generated. The report lists activity or minimum detectible activity concentrations found in the sample for key nuclides of interest for food products: Iodine-131, Cesium-134 and Cesium-137. Based on nuclide-specific limits predetermined by the system manager, the report will also state whether the sample is “Clean” or “Above Limit”.

The FoodScreen system includes a 2 x 2 in. NaI(Tl) detector (optionally temperature stabilized), 7F7 Mobile FoodScreen Shield, a NORM* KCl calibration check source, Osprey® Universal Digital MCA Tube Base, industry-standard Genie Spectroscopy Software Suite, including the Genie-FieldPro application to streamline and simplify counting operations.
