SATURN I, SATURN II

The SATURN ratemeter is a compact acquisition and control unit, designed for managing and processing signals from any ELSE NUCLEAR connected detector.

• SATURN I: standard wall-mounted version
• SATURN II: wall-mounting version compliant with “Good Manufacturing Practice” requirements (no external cable or connectors)

All the ratemeter versions feature local function buttons with status LEDs, internal acoustic buzzer and a relay connector, used to manage external alarm columns or interlocks.

The SATURN ratemeter continuously acquires and processes the data coming from the connected detector, and compares results with user-defined alarm thresholds.

Two user-selected measurements can be displayed at the same time on the display, such as instantaneous or average count rate, dose rate, activity concentration, counts, dose or activity integrated values.

The user interface is accessible through an external keyboard, which allows local interaction with the full range of parameters (advanced setting is password protected). Measurements, thresholds and operating parameters are stored into an internal, non-volatile memory.

The ratemeter can communicate to and be remotely managed by a host PC through an Ethernet or RS485 network.
