GAMS 01 Gamma Spectrometry Measuring System PDF Print E-mail

The instrument enables gamma  radiation measurements  at any location. The device is  intended for  radionuclides  activities measuring in packed or unpacked objects and substances. The measured values are used for radionuclides content declaration for further treatment of characterized materials or  package sets.

Instrumentation

  • The hardware comprises a cart specially designed  to  carry  all the components: HPGe detector, shield and collimator, 7 l Dewar, digiDART™ high performance  multichannel analyzer, and laptop computer.
  • Large wheels permit easy movement over rough surfaces, allowing easy transport of the entire device to any location.
  • The detector support can be positioned at heights from 0,38 m (15  in.) to 1,2 m (48  in.).  The pivot mechanism orients the detector to different angles in the range of 0-180°.
  • The system measures  all  common geometries: pipes, cylinders, floors, ceilings, walls, drums, boxes, and soils.
  • Two  flexible systems can be joined and work together as one more efficient system.
  • System is an ideal solution for a wide variety of in-situ gamma-ray measurements.
  • Calibration is a simple procedure, requiring only  the use of a single point, mixed isotope source. Automatic energy calibration technique and automatic efficiency calibration make system setup friendly.
  • Any  standard HPGe detector may be used with  the system and no special factory calibration is required.

Software

RAOS-MMapplication is  a simple SW enabling the transfer of  IsoTopic measured  results into  RAOS database.  Operator selects the material package in RAOS database, measurement report from local IsoPlus (MS  access) database and transfers the measurement report into  RAOS database for further use. RAOS application is  a standalone SW module intended for  data  recording from the RAOS-MM application. It provides the data on measured charges and performed checks. In addition, it allows populating of code tables and measuring parameters. RAOS SW administrator can also create and/or modify user profiles within the application  etc. SW application RAOS enables  exporting of  the charge measurement data in  XML  format for  further processing  in  external applications, displaying of  the measured  charge balance under defined time period and it also enables to  carry out other functions used for data evaluation and presentation.
