VRDS identifies the gamma rays emitted by the presence of radioactive material loaded in vehicles while these are in motion. The recommended speed of the vehicle is 4-10 km/h.
Radiation Detection Gate
Basic features
- Two plastic scintillation detectors (IP65) of high sensitivity with integrated electronics for signal processing placed on concrete blocks, around 1 meter before the weighbridge. The detectors are managed by the LB112 evaluation unit, usually installed inside a weighing room, along with the other electronics.
- The evaluation unit LB112 for monitoring. A stainless steel wall unit with environmental protection IP65. The sound and lights alarm built into the unit of assessment is activated, when the pre-set thresholds are being exceeded. The permitted thresholds are set during the commissioning of the system.
- The VRDS can store up to 4000 measurement data sets, without the use of a computer.
Specifications
It can be connected directly to | - a local network by an Ethernet card - a PC through a RS485 or RS232 link or a weighing system to link the measurement files to the weight ticket, - a printer. |
Benefits to your weighbridge | - Automatic connection to the weighbridge - Prohibits radioactive materials from entering a site - Prevents radioactive contamination of soil, waste, recycling, scrap, products and personnel - VDRS is easily operated with minimal training. |
