Above: CoMo-170: 2 in 1 α and βγ portable contamination monitor
From nuclear operations to civil security NUVIA collaborate with leading physical security products and services providers to adapt NuVISION for securing critical infrastructure, major public events and borders. NuVISION is the leading market solution that precisely
locates the nuclear threat from a distance, including in the middle of a large crowd. Integrated with high-specification security software to immediately spot the radioactive source on the image and trigger an alarm based on the type of isotope detected. For example, the software can display a green alarm for isotopes used in medical diagnostics and a red alarm for a potential criminal act that will be critical in the type of response to roll out.
CoMo-170: 2 in 1 α and βγ portable contamination monitor NUVIATech Instruments biggest selling product is the CoMo-170 portable contamination monitor. This lightweight, ergonomic, handheld device incorporates both detector and display in a single embodiment, allowing for single hand operation. Not only is it a 2-in-1 instrument, capable of high efficiency monitoring of α and βγ surface contamination in a single device – with no detector change required — but thanks to its use of a solid-state scintillator, there is zero chance of gas leaks, and can be easily maintained. CoMo-170 is adaptable — with NUVIA’s suite of
accessories, CoMo can be used as: ● wipe test station — used to measure wipe samples of
various sizes (60, 120 mm, screening filters). A wipe test factor can be taken into account.
● A floor contamination monitor - Floor trolleys for 1 - 3 CoMo systems are available to monitor large floor areas. This makes it easy to carry out indoor or outdoor measurements.
● A wall mounted hand contamination monitor - The wall station allows you to reliably check hands without picking up the monitor. With power supply for charging the CoMo’s NiMH-batteries.
A selection of special, external accessories and detectors expands the field of application of our CoMo contamination monitors: Dose rate probe The external dose rate probe turns the mobile contamination monitor into a flexible dose rate meter.
Pipe detector Designed for complete monitoring of pipes. The pipe detectors can measure α- and β/γ-contamination. Guiding elements and optional collars ensure the detector being centralised within the pipe. Pancake contamination probe The pancake contamination probe has the ideal size for finding hot spots or checking the interior of respirators. Flat detector Areas that are inaccessible due to the housing height of the CoMo 170 can be easily monitored using the flat detector. Its robust design makes it very versatile. Lantern detector The lantern detector with its 4 detector surfaces can be used to monitor storage chutes for contamination, for example, in fuel element transport containers. Corner detector When carrying out clearance measurements, especially during the decommissioning of nuclear facilities, the detector can be used for the measurement of corners. Our corner detector has no dead zone at the edge. This type of detector has also proved itself for clearance monitoring of corrugated sheets, e.g. of ISO-containers.
Making tomorrow better than today NUVIATech Instruments are designed from the end-user’s perspective. NUVIA’s broad and deep experiences in the delivery of nuclear projects and health physics services are built-in to our products. This approach provides robust, easy to use, accurate instruments, which make everyday tasks simple and more reliable. With applications in decommissioning and waste
management, homeland security, health physics, continuous process monitoring and environmental monitoring, NUVIATech Instruments provide standard and tailored measurement solutions to nuclear owners, operators and stakeholders for all stages of the facilities’ life cycle. We can supply both components (detectors, analysers, and software) and complete measurement systems, incorporating carrier equipment, conveyor equipment, GPS control, signal processing units. With a commitment to developing innovative solutions, NUVIA strives to make tomorrow better than today. We look forward to working with you to understand your requirements and provide solutions that enable you to deliver safely and effectively. ■
