Mobile radiation detection system comes complete with an integrated GPS, and has the doserate and positional information displayed on a portable PC
The FHT40 NBR is a portable battery powered instrument from Southern Scientific that meets the needs of a multipurpose radioactive monitor for fast screening of large areas where gamma contamination or orphan sources may be present.
Over 1000 times more sensitive than portable dose rate meters with gas filled counter tubes, the FH40G detector permits statistically high precision measurements in a matter of seconds.
The NBR process (Natural Background Reduction), developed by ThermoEberline ESM, permits fully automatic identification of the contribution of even the smallest amounts of artificial gamma radiation in the nSv/h range with a sharply fluctuating natural background.
For example, it is possible, at normal ambient levels, to identify a contribution of 10nSv/h caused by Cs137 as artificial within a matter of seconds.
The FHT1376 mobile radiation detection system is based on the FH40NBR system and comes complete with an integrated GPS system, and has the doserate and positional information displayed on a portable PC.
It can easily be installed in a variety of vehicles and represents an ultra sensitive solution for detection of gamma contamination or hidden sources.
Due to the unique NBR method employed small contributions of non-natural gamma emitters can be detected even with a varying natural background.
