Ionising radiation detector HF-4

for wastenuclear medecinefor scientific research

Short description
The HF-4 series hand-foot contamination monitors are intended for the measurement of surface contamination by alpha, beta and gamma emitting radionuclides on hands, feet, and clothing.

Applications

• Nuclear facilities
• Waste management
• Ionizing radiation metrology
• Nuclear medicine
• Non-nuclear industry

Key Features

• Gas-less smart scintillation detectors
• Optimized number of detectors (two hands, two feet)
• Two-step measurement of hands (palms and backs)
• A detachable hand detector for frisking
• A variety of detectors available for optimum measurement of various radiation types
• Dynamic processing algorithms to give shortest measurement times depending on background
• User friendly graphic interface
• Quick change of measurement parameters (for example alarm levels, nuclides, units) by selection from stored presets using the touchscreen display
• Voice messages available in different languages
• Easy transport due to wheels and a handle
• Ethernet LAN connection as standard
• Web interface for the remote display of status

Description
The HF-4 monitors use two hand and two feet scintillation detectors. For proper contamination check on both sides, hands must be measured in two steps, palms and backs separately. Optionally, the right hand detector can be equipped with a handle and used as a frisking probe.
