Gamma and Neutron Radiation Calibration Equipment
Neutron Irradiation Calibration System PM9200 is designed for automated verification, calibration, graduation, and testing of the instruments that measure flux density, ambient dose equivalent rate, and personal dose equivalent rate of neutron radiation.
PM9200 provides the field of fast and thermal neutrons in a collimated beam as well as in an open geometry. The field is created by sealed neutron sources 238Pu-Be, 239Pu- BE, 241Am-Be, and 252Cf used in the system irradiator.
