ELSE NUCLEAR has been historically involved in the design and manufacturing of a broad range of products for environmental monitoring systems for a wide range of customers: nuclear power plants, regional and national environmental agencies, universities, research centres, particle accelerator facilities, etc.
Up to date, ELSE NUCLEAR has more than 3000 detection units integrated in environmental monitoring systems, installed in over 40 countries operating since the ‘90s worldwide.
NAUSICAA is an ion-chamber-based gamma radiation monitoring unit, available in two versions: IC-T for environmental measurements (9 decades electrometer) and IC-T-PF for pulsed field measurements (7 decades electrometer). Both versions include an ion chamber detector, an electrometer and a CPU-based acquisition and control unit.
The ICP-T detector is identical to NAUSICAA, but it does not include the CPU, being connected to and managed by a SATURN ratemeter.
ELSE NUCLEAR offers GM-1 (single tube, up to 1 mSv/h) and MERCURY (dual tube, up to 1 Sv/h) Geiger-Müller detectors, both with energy-compensated tubes in aluminium housings. Paired with the SATURN ratemeter, they form modular monitoring units managed via the 5700 sMON software.
LUPIN BF3 is an environmental monitoring unit for neutron H*(10) measurements, with unique excellent performance for neutron detection in pulsed fields.
The SATURN ratemeter is a compact acquisition and control unit, designed for managing and processing signals from any ELSE NUCLEAR connected detector.
The environmental monitoring system EUCLIDES consists in a network of ELSE NUCLEAR detectors connected to a wall-mounted Local Control Unit, featuring a panel PC with a complete and autonomous management software.
SATURN 5702 is a mobile monitoring station for gamma and neutron dose rates, equipped with ICP-T/ICP-T-PF and LUPIN BF3 detectors. Mounted on a wheeled trolley, it includes an ALU alarm column and supports remote detector use up to 20 m. The detectors connect to a 19” rack with two independent SATURN ratemeters. The system can interface with external devices via relays and is remotely managed via 5700 sMON software over Ethernet or RS485/422.
5700 sMON is a Windows-compatible software for real-time control and display of ELSE NUCLEAR environmental monitoring systems. It manages detector networks via Ethernet or RS485, logging dose rates and system events, and allowing full parameter configuration. The interface includes intuitive windows and menus. Data are archived locally and shared via LAN.
