Description

The intermediate range monitor IRM 501 unit forms part of the digital Neutron Flux Monitoring Systems (NFMS) proTK™ product line. It is used, in combination with a gamma-compensated, neutron ionization chamber, (B-10 detector) for ex-core neutron flux monitoring in the intermediate range. The associated processing DAK 250-g unit, has been designed and is qualified (in hardware and software) to meet category A requirements, applicable at the level of the reactor protection system.
