PORT SECURITY RADIATION DETECTOR

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides technical specifications and operational details for the highly sensitive 78017 Gamma Geiger tube, designed for detecting gamma radiation and high-energy X-rays.
Specifications:
  • Calibration: The tube is calibrated to 160 counts per second/milliR/Hr using standardized Cesium 137, with a calibration accuracy of +/- 5% as per MIL-STD-45662.
  • Minimum Detectable Energy: 38 KEV.
  • Maximum Operating Temperature: 75° Centigrade.
  • Dead Time: 90 microseconds.
  • Size and Weight: Dimensions are 10.55” x 3.50” x 3.25”, weighing 1.5 lb in air.
  • Servicing: The unit is factory sealed and requires no servicing.
Operational Features:
  • The software is digitally locked to the sensor, eliminating the need for analog adjustments.
  • The tube has passed rigorous examinations and tests, including DCAS MIL-Q985A, MIL-E-I, and Appendix B of 10CFR50.
  • In practical tests, the tube can detect a 10 micro curie Cesium 137 standard from 14 inches away underwater.
Installation and Usage:
  • The detector mounts easily using supplied screws and connects to the ROV’s rear accessories connector.
  • Output is accessible from the control console’s serial port, requiring a PC to read, plot, and alarm detected radiation.
  • The system includes all necessary software.
Limitations:
  • The sensor is not designed to detect Alpha and Beta particles due to its mounting inside a pressure housing.

PORT SECURITY RADIATION DETECTOR-1

RADIATION DETECTOR The VideoRay Radiation Detector mounts easily using the four screws supplied, plugs into the ROV’s rear accessories connector, and its output is accessible from the control console’s serial port. A PC is required to read, plot, and alarm upon detected radiation. All required software is supplied with the system. This unit is very sensitive to gamma radiation and high energy X-Rays. The sensor is not designed to detect Alpha and Beta particles since the tube is mounted inside a pressure housing.
