Description
Next Generation Design, Rooted in Proven Technology
The RSDetection*, the next generation Reuter Stokes environmental radiation monitor, provides superior technology for the detection and measurement of low-level gamma radiation. The RSDetection* remains rooted in the high pressure ionization chamber (HPIC) technology of prior offerings, while providing improvements in several key areas: sensitivity, reliability, and stability. With updated electronics and diagnostics, and a new weatherproof case, the RSDetection* is uniquely suited to provide robust and reliable operation in extreme environments, for applications varying from homeland security to nuclear power plants.
Rich History
With a rich history dating back over 50 years, GE has been an industry leader in the research, design and manufacturing of quality Reuter Stokes detectors for a variety of radiation monitoring applications. With over 100,000 detectors in service around the world supporting instrumentation ranging from reactor monitoring and security applications to neutron research and oil exploration, no company understands your radiation measurement requirements better than we do.
Benefits
• Enhanced Sensitivity and Performance – 10” diameter HPIC gamma detector. Excellent temperature
stability. High accuracy (Zero stability: ± 0.5μR/hr; Gain stability: ±3% < 35μR/hr, ±0.5% > 35μR/hr).
• Improved Reliability and Stability – Upgraded processing electronics design
• Extended battery life – up to 48 hours** run time. Equipped with built-in battery charger.
• Upgraded communications – Ethernet and 3 USB ports along with an RS-232 serial port for backward
compatibility
• Increased data capacity – 1 GB storage. Adjustable recording intervals, greater than 10M data points of
storage.
• Omni-directional – spherical HPIC is not subject to inherent Geiger-Mueller tube limitations. Provides
more uniform directionality and has higher sensitivity at lower dose rates.
• Fast response time – Less than 10 seconds
Features
• Extended range: 0-100R/hr (0-1Sv/hr)
• Adjustable data smoothing filter
• High signal-to-noise ratio
• Time stamped data and configurable recording intervals
• Configurable options for a variety of Environmental and Homeland Security applications
• Windows based configuration utility allows users to connect to a single RSDetection* unit for
configuration, data display, and diagnostics
• Backwards compatible with RSS-131 (ER) – same mounting scheme and core protocol
(adapter cable required)
• Replaces earlier models, including the RSS 1012, RSS 1013, and the RSS 131 (ER).***
