1.1 Measuring System
1.1.1 Basic Measuring Configuration
The measuring system SENSseries LB 480 is a detector which,
depending on its design, can be used for different measurement
tasks:
– Level measurement
– Monitoring limit values
– Density measurement
The measuring system SENSseries LB 480 comes in the following
versions:
– Point detector CrystalSENS (NaI 50/50)
– Point detector SuperSENS (scintillator 150/150)
– Rod detector UniSENS (length 0.5 to 2m in 50cm increments)
– Rod detector TowerSENS (length 3 to 8m in 1m increments)
The measuring system utilizes the radiometric measuring method,
i.e. the absorption of Gamma radiation passing through the product
being measured. In order to obtain an optimum measuring effect at
minimal source activity, the ideal measuring geometry is calculated
for each measuring site and the source is designed accordingly.
The measuring system SENSseries LB 480 is a compact detector,
including the required components scintillation counters, power
supply and the entire evaluation electronics, in one device.
