A 'single shot' high resolution gamma assay system for waste
drums and boxes. The DrumScan® HRGS Solo system delivers reliable,
fast and high-sensitivity.
The DrumScan® HRGS Solo system accurately assays a wide range of
wastes including paper, plastics, clothing, soil, incinerator ash,
sludges and others in drums or boxes weighing up to 1000 kg. The
operating range for drum activities spans the measurements from
exempt waste, VLLW, LLW and ILW. Contaminated waste containing up
to 6.0 GBq 60Co activity in a 200 litre drum of scrap metal can be
readily measured.
System options:
- Electrically cooled HPGe detectors are available to meet the
needs of both well supported facilities and more remote locations
where liquid nitrogen may not be readily available.
- The standard turntable can be replacedby a roller conveyor
turntable. This flexibility is ideal for both automated drum
handling and in-cell applications.
- Optional drum dose rate measurements at selected positions
close to waste containers are available during waste assay (dose
rate range 10-7 to 10-2 Sv/hr).
- The DrumScan® HRGS Solo system can also provide automatic waste
consignment optimization and documentation production for multiple
drum shipments.
- An optional bar code reader is available to enable automatic
input of the unique details of each measured drum. This option
removes the potential for operator and transcription errors.
