Ultra Energy PET Gas Detection Assembly

PET Gas Detection Assembly The Ultra Electronics PET Facility Stack Monitor uses a ‘bypass’ method of measurement. The bypass measurement involves drawing a continuous sample from the stack and detecting the radioactive concentration in a measurement chamber. The PET Gas Detection Assembly comprises processing electronics (the CMS PET), sample flow sensor, pump equipment, measurement chamber, PG-10 detector and lead shielding, all mounted on a self-contained frame. Optionally, the system is also available with sample Iodine sample cartridge and gamma dose rate sensor. The PG-10 detector is a unique detector that utilizes a plastic scintillation detector, sensitive to the Positron decay, not the 511 keV gamma photons. The PET Gas Detection Assembly offers our users distinct benefits including a reduced influence from interfering ambient gamma fields, a higher dynamic range than traditional NaI(Tl) detector, and less sensitivity to temperature variations. As its standard configuration, the system is provided with a unique double pump system. This provides the user with redundancy – so, in the event the main pump fails, the second pump can be activated to continue sampling. Alternatively, the system can be supplied with an air injection pump (using compressed air) with no moving parts for reduced maintenance. As an alternative to the frame mounted system, Ultra Electronics also supplies a second mounting configuration where all items are designed to be attached to a wall. This configuration is often useful for clients where floor space is at a premium. Note that the wall-mounted system does not have the same amount of lead shielding.
