ELSE NUCLEAR Product Portfolio
Spectrometry Systems
ELSE NUCLEAR have developed highly specialised spectrometry systems for gamma and neutron radiation. These devices are designed to provide fast and reliable spectrometry measurements in a wide range of conditions. Gamma and neutron spectrometry systems are suitable for research facilities, steel foundries, nuclear power plants, and particle accelerator facilities.
- Gamma spectrometry units for laboratory applications
- Hand-held spectrometers for gamma radiation
- Mobile gamma spectrometry and survey units
- Bonner sphere sets for neutron spectrometry
- Single sphere neutron spectrometers
- Wide energy active neutron spectrometers
Radiation Monitoring Systems
ELSE NUCLEAR has more than 3000 detection units integrated in environmental monitoring systems, installed in over 40 countries and operating since the 90s worldwide, including:
- Ion chamber-based gamma radiation monitoring units
- Geiger Muller-based gamma detectors
- Neutron rem counters for pulsed fields
- Digital ratemeters
- Gamma and neutron environmental monitoring mobile stations
- Visualisation and processing software for monitoring networks
Scanning Systems
To support the decommissioning of nuclear power plants, ELSE NUCLEAR has developed solutions for radioactive waste characterisation. Ideal for deployment at nuclear power plants, sites being decommissioned, hospitals, and wherever there is a need for waste clearance.
- Fully automated container and drum scanners
- High-efficiency spectrometric systems for waste characterization and free-release
- Large surface scanning systems
- Pipe contamination scanners
- Small Items monitors
- Laundry monitors
Liquid and Gas Effluent Monitors
We can supply liquid and gas effluent monitors for hospitals, nuclear power plants, and research centres. Designed to measure the level of contamination before liquids/gasses are released, these systems are modular and can be customised to meet any specific requirement.
- Systems for monitoring and disposal of radioactive wastewater before free release
- Systems for gross gamma or spectrometric measurements on wastewater samples
- Air activation monitoring systems
- Effluent gas monitors
Radiation Portal Monitors
Radiation portal monitors are capable of automatically scanning vehicles, pedestrians or materials passing through, measuring the level of radioactivity and providing alarm warnings if a pre-set threshold is trespassed.
- Radiation portal monitors for vehicles and railway weighing stations
- Systems for continuous gamma monitoring of moving material
- Portals for pedestrians
- Radiation portal monitors for hospital waste
In-vivo Counting Systems
ELSE NUCLEAR’s in-vivo counting systems have been developed to perform high-efficiency, reliable scanning of individuals, either for whole-body applications or specialised analysis. Such monitors can be employed in nuclear power plants, research facilities, and anywhere an in-vivo monitoring of individuals is required.
- Lung burden analysis/counting systems
- Whole body in-vivo counting systems
