AM-806 Radiation Waste / Trash Monitor

The AM-806 Waste Monitor is a new method to monitor hospital waste. The sensitive plastic scintillation detectors detect less than one micro Curie of Cesium-137. This system features all digital components and a full color VGA touch screen. The AM-806 Waste Monitor is user-friendly and requires minimal training.

Features:

AM-806 Radiation Waste / Trash Monitor Specifications:

DISPLAY: Full Color VGA, touch sensitive screen, full color graphics. Screen indicates normal operation , errors, and alarms. All operating parameters: detector CPS, high voltage, and set points are visible to user.

Operating Modes and Data Entry: Walk through or timed count, system constantly measures background and automatically subtracts from each measurement, touch sensitive screen is available for all data entry

SENSITIVITY:  Meets FEMA sensitivity requirements of less than 1 uCi Cs-137 source during walk through

PROCESSING RATE: Approximately 500 persons per hour

DETECTORS: Two Plastic Scintillation detectors, 36” L X 3” W X 1.5” D,  with PMT Detector,  162 cubic inches, each detector is 648 cubic inches

OPERATING MODES & DATA ENTRY:  Walk/push-through or timed count. System Constantly measures background and automatically subtracts from each measurement.

AUDIBLE COMMANDS AND ALARMS:  System is pre-programmed with appropriate commands to coincide with operations (i.e. Wait, System not Ready, Ready, Too Fast, See Operator). Commands can be configured.

PERSON AND/OR VEHICLE SENSOR & COUNTER: Optical sensors automatically sense person or vehicle from entering counting area. Counter automatically counts number of persons or vehicles per day, shift, etc and saves count and time/date of vehicles exceeding alarm setpoints.
