Protection of nuclear facility and nuclear power plant personnel requires thorough, frequent monitoring for gamma contamination using a detection system that won’t disrupt plant operations. The Thermo Scientific™ PM12 Personnel Gamma Portal Monitor provides simplified but advanced monitoring capability for workers, articles and waste well below clearance levels. The unit has eight identical large gamma-sensitive plastic scintillation detectors to provide coverage from head to feet and accommodates traffic flow in either direction for reliable radiation detection in an efficiently-running process.
