Area Gamma Radiation Monitor

Area Gamma Monitor Overview

The Area Gamma Radiation Monitor from AETEC helps users monitor gamma radiation levels in working areas where continuous radiation safety monitoring is required. Additionally, this radiation monitoring device indicates dose rate on a clear display screen and provides audio-visual alarm indication when the radiation level crosses the preset alarm value.

Moreover, the system can monitor low gamma dose rate levels in radioisotope laboratories, radiotherapy departments, medical radiological areas, industrial radiography installations, atomic power stations, radiochemical plants and waste immobilization plants. Therefore, it supports radiation safety teams in maintaining safe working conditions.

In addition, the monitor can show dose rate, alarm status, configuration settings and system messages on a TFT display or LED display panel, depending on configuration. As a result, operators can read radiation status quickly and take action during alarm conditions.

Area Gamma Monitor Product Description

The Area Gamma Radiation Monitor provides continuous area radiation monitoring for gamma and X-ray radiation detection. It works as a gamma radiation detector and area radiation monitor for controlled radiation zones, laboratories and industrial radiation installations.

Additionally, the instrument measures dose rate in selected units such as mR/hr, µSv/hr, CPS and CPM. The default measuring range can be configured from 0.01 to 100 mR/hr or as per application requirement.

Moreover, the system uses a GM detector probe with energy compensation, pre-amplifier and suitable cable arrangement. Therefore, it can monitor radiation levels in the measurement area while the display unit remains in the operation room or control room when required.

Furthermore, the TFT display screen provides clear indication of measured value, alarm condition and configuration settings. The display panel can show NORMAL and ACTIVE alarm status through visual indication. Also, the screen can flash during alarm condition for better operator attention.

In addition, the Area Gamma Monitor supports RS485 and Ethernet communication for remote monitoring. It can support Modbus communication, network commands, alarm set point configuration, measured value reading, EHT value reading, acknowledge command and reset command.

Finally, the system provides a practical solution for users looking for radiation monitoring devices, gamma detector systems, radiation meter devices, monitor calibration support and network-based radiation monitoring solutions.
