UF6 cylinder verification system implemented on the ORTEC
Micro-trans-SPEC or trans-SPEC-DX-100 HPGe Portable
Spectrometer.
• All-in-one light weight instrument with software designed to follow
the current procedures for UF6 cylinder inspection by safeguards
inspectors.
• High precision, rapid results through combining tried-and-tested
methodology with the latest advances in HPGe spectrometry.
• Solves spectral interference problems encountered with NaI based
systems.
• Micro-trans-SPEC hardware can be used for other related
applications.
The ORTEC Detective-derived trans-SPEC series of instruments are ideal field deployable LN2-free HPGe spectrometers. In particular, the Microtrans- SPEC,1 weighing in at less than 7 kg (excluding additional hardware such as collimators), is small and compact yet rugged enough for field operations.
The instrument features a long life Stirling cycle cryo-cooler and digital electronics. It can be powered from a variety of sources, including worldwide mains, automobile and other DC sources, which means it is ideal for safeguards inspections where an inspector may arrive at a facility with the instrument in the operational state and ready for use.
The powerful built-in data processing capabilities make it ideal for onboard custom data analysis, and its bright clear screen makes it a pleasure to use, even in bright outdoor conditions.
