Automated Free Release Monitor for Gamma Emitting Radionuclides

The Model HWM-400S is a partly automated compact clearance monitor designed with very high throughput for gamma emitting radionuclide objects up to 150 kg (330 lb) and 400 L (14.1 ft³) in volume.

The standard unit is equipped with the following features:

6 gamma plastic detectors for complete 4π coverage
30 mm (1.2 in.) lead shielding
Built-in weight scale for up to 150 kg (330 lb)
Powder-coated steel frame with easy to clean stainless steel lining inside and outside
Manual conveyor system with electrically driven door
Stand-alone control cabinet with 17 in. touch-screen display, keyboard with mouse-trackball, UPS for the protection of measurements and controllers
Automated measuring process with user guidance
Radionuclide composition suggestion from detector pulse analysis
Network capability for remote monitoring and supervision

The Model HWM-400S provides fast and reliable detection of gamma emitting radionuclides. Equipped with the latest measuring electronics and a built-in maintenance module, it allows optimization of the system to ensure consistent peak performance.
