NIM 201K
Neutron Irradiation Dose Rate Monitor
The NIM 201K forms part of the RAMSYS product
line. It has been developed to monitor in real time the
ambient dose equivalent rate. It provides operatio-
nal dose rate in units of H*(10) derived from neutron
uence according to ICRU 57 recommendations. The
helium-3 proportional counter (cylindrical tube) pla-
ced inside a polyethylene sphere facilitates detection
of thermal and fast neutrons. Its large energy range,
associated with modular design makes it ef cient,
reliable and very sensitive. It is used effectively in nu-
clear reactors, subcritical stacks, neutron generators
and irradiators, and in accelerator facilities.
APPLICATIONS
