G64 Gamma Radiation Area Monitor
The G64 Area Gamma Monitor is a compact, microprocessor-based radiation monitor, designed specifically for area and process monitoring in nuclear facilities. Its main functions are to
display the gamma dose rate in the area and to warn local personnel in the event of an alarm situation. It can also function as an interlock monitor. The G64 is intended for installed use but can also be used on a bench stand or wheeled trolley to provide temporary monitoring or to supplement permanently installed monitors during maintenance activities. The only requirements of the basic system are a G64 monitor, suitably mounted (wall mounting brackets supplied), and a power supply in the range 100-240 V ac.
The standard G64 is supplied with a compact solid state detector for use in low to medium dose rate applications. The detector is directly mounted on top of the display/alarm unit. For remote monitoring applications, the detector assembly can be easily dismounted from the display/alarm unit and installed at distances of up to 100 m (328 ft) using a Remote Detector Kit. The user must simply ensure that connections between the detector and the G64 display/alarm unit are correct and that the detector is mounted using the wall mounting bracket supplied.
