RADOS FastTrack-Fibre™
New generation Gamma Portal Monitor
CheckPoint:Gate™ family
RADOS FastTrack-Fibre™
New generation Gamma Portal Monitor
The RADOS FastTrack-Fibre™ Monitor is not a
conventional type Gamma Portal Monitor. It unites
the advances of GammaFibre™ and FastTrack
technologies in a compact design, thereby setting a
new standard in personnel gamma monitoring.
The FastTrack technology delivers a robust
performance under circumstances when a
conventional gamma monitor would produce a false
alarm or worse go into genuine alarm without actually
being able to locate the person carrying a source.
FEATURES
• Up to 14 large volume GammaFibre™detectors in a
compact steel housing
• Alarm annunciation by light and voice
• Industrial PC supported measurement electronics,
suitable for networking
• Touchscreen for setup and additional data display
• FastTrack algorithms for the acceleration of
measurements without compromising detection
performance and leading to a reduction of false alarm
rates induced by background events
It allows accelerating the detection process beyond
anything known from conventional gamma monitors
without compromising detection limits or false alarm
rate.
The combination with the GammaFibre™ technology
has allowed us to build this system into a compact
monitor which does not look much different to a
conventional type monitor from the outside.
These features are complemented by state-of-the-
art PC based measurement electronics, running on
robust, real time and multi-tasking QNX operating
system, proven in industry for highest performance
in process control. The monitor features an intuitive
graphical user interface and a compact touch screen
for comfortable display of additional data, such as a
measurement history.

Overview of Features
Customer Benefits
• Large Volume GammaFibre™ scintillation detectors - 6 detectors on either side
plus optional head and foot detector
Improved light collection properties for Fibre scintillation detectors.
• Compact, painted mild steel housing, easy to decontaminate
• Alarms indicated by lights with color coding and voice annunciation
• Touchscreen as easy interface to industrial grade computer for setup, maintenance and
additional analysis features
• New FastTrack algorithms for accelerated measurements without compromising detection
limits or false alarm rate
• UPS allows the monitor to function stable even in case of power uctuation
• Watchdog: if communication between PC and measuring electronics is disturbed, a
respective signal will be given to avoid failures
High throughput
• FastTrack algorithms allow reliable detection at all walking speeds, avoiding queues of
personnel waiting for measurement at peak times
Less false alarms require less intervention by control personnel
• FastTrack algorithms are able to distinguish detection events inside the monitor from
outside events. This allows to ag background events or premature detection of sources
approaching or waiting outside the monitor. All these events would produce false alarms
in conventional type of gamma portal monitors.
Low cost of operation and maintenance
• Rigorous standardization of parts decreases need to hold a large variety of spares
• Maintenance software tools
Ability to network
• TCP/IP ability
• Optional link up with CeMoSys™ server for centralised monitoring
FastTrack algorithms also lead to lower limits of detection than conventional type monitors

RADOS GammaFibre™ technology has been proven over many generations of RADOS body
monitors.
The FastTrack-Fibre™ monitor of the CheckPoint:Gate™ family is the ideal monitor to check
personnel for gamma emitting sources at the site boundaries of nuclear facilities
• with low detection limits in high or changing gamma background
• with high throughput requirements
The FastTrack-Fibre™ is also very well suited for use outside the nuclear industry
for safeguarding purposes, law enforcement applications or monitoring of vulnerable
infrastructures for nuclear or radioactive devices.
