Mobile Contamination Monitoring Suite
The use of radioactive materials can cause radioactive
contamination spots in buildings and working areas.
An important task of Health Physics is to prevent
spread of contamination to other work areas, in
particular out of controlled areas.
Change rooms are an integral part of designated areas
set up for the control of contamination (controlled
areas). However, it is often necessary to set up
temporary controlled areas and related facilities, in
particular in decommissioning related activities.
Mirion Technologies (RADOS) GmbH and its partners
in nuclear industry have developed a Mobile
Contamination Monitoring Suite to support these
requirements. The RADOS Mobile Change Unit is a
container module combining the well-known RADOS
body contamination monitors and a clearance monitor
with washing facilities.
These monitors have been used in many nuclear
installations worldwide and meet the most demanding
specifications of the nuclear regulators both in terms
of radiometric performance as well as the criteria of
usage under nuclear industrial conditions.
