The rem counter is composed of:
The built-in electronics processes the signal coming from the detector and elaborates the instantaneous H*(10) rate value every second. |
If required, the radiation sensitive electronics can be housed in a separate rack, thanks to the modularity of the instrument components. The data are sent to the connected SATURN ratemeter acquisition and control unit, which locally displays the instantaneous H*(10) rate and the integrated values and compares them to the pre-set alarm thresholds. A LUPIN BF3-NP LITE version is also available, featuring a lighter build and a narrower energy range, suitable for all the applications that do not require to detect neutrons with energy above 20 MeV. |
LUPIN BF3-NP
NEUTRON REM COUNTER FOR PULSED FIELDS
LUPIN BF3-NP is an environmental monitoring unit for neutron H*(10) measurements, with unique excellent performance for neutron detection in pulsed fields.
