Saturn 5702-Gamma And Neutron Environmental Monitor

Gamma And Neutron Environmental Monitoring Mobile Station

SATURN 5702 is a mobile station equipped with two detectors for gamma and neutron dose rate monitoring. The station includes:

  • Ion chamber-based gamma radiation monitoring unit: ICP-T or ICP-T-PF
  • Neutron rem counter for pulsed fields: LUPIN BF3-NP

Description

The detectors and the electronics are housed in a trolley-mounted mechanical structure. The height of the trolley can be customized according to the customer needs, for example to centre the detectors with the beam line height. Each detector can be removed from the trolley to be employed remotely, up to 20 m. An ALU alarm column is mounted on the top, providing luminous and acoustic warning signals related to the status of the mobile station: good functioning, pre-alarm and alarm. The status indication is also available through 4 relay contacts for connection with external devices.

ICP-T

The ion chamber-based gamma radiation monitoring unit ICP-T features a special electrometer for measuring very intense pulsed radiation fields, such as those generated by research particle accelerators (ICP-T-PF version). Please refer to specific data sheet for further details.

LUPIN BF3-NP

The neutron rem counter for pulsed fields unit LUPIN BF3-NP features an excellent performance for detection in pulsed neutron fields. Please refer to specific data sheet for further details.

SATURN I RTM

The detectors are connected via external cables to a standard 19” electronics rack equipped with two dedicated SATURN I RTM ratemeter units. Each ratemeter features a display, 3 function keys with status LEDs, and a plug for external keyboard. Please refer to specific data sheet for further details.

SATURN 5702 can be connected to a remote host PC running a data management software (5700 sMON) through ETH or RS485/422 connection.
