Overview of Features
• Large Volume GammaFibre™ scintillation detectors - 6 detectors on either side
plus optional head and foot detector
Improved light collection properties for Fibre scintillation detectors.
• Compact, painted mild steel housing, easy to decontaminate
• Alarms indicated by lights with color coding and voice annunciation
• Touchscreen as easy interface to industrial grade computer for setup, maintenance and
additional analysis features
• New FastTrack algorithms for accelerated measurements without compromising detection
limits or false alarm rate
• UPS allows the monitor to function stable even in case of power fluctuation
• Watchdog: if communication between PC and measuring electronics is disturbed, a
respective signal will be given to avoid failures
Customer Benefits
High throughput
• FastTrack algorithms allow reliable detection at all walking speeds, avoiding queues of
personnel waiting for measurement at peak times
Less false alarms require less intervention by control personnel
• FastTrack algorithms are able to distinguish detection events inside the monitor from
outside events. This allows to flag background events or premature detection of sources
approaching or waiting outside the monitor. All these events would produce false alarms
in conventional type of gamma portal monitors.
Low cost of operation and maintenance
• Rigorous standardization of parts decreases need to hold a large variety of spares
• Maintenance software tools
Ability to network
• TCP/IP ability
• Optional link up with CeMoSys™ server for centralised monitoring
FastTrack algorithms also lead to lower limits of detection than conventional type monitors

RADOS GammaFibre™ technology has been proven over many generations of RADOS body
monitors.
The FastTrack-Fibre™ monitor of the CheckPoint:Gate™ family is the ideal monitor to check
personnel for gamma emitting sources at the site boundaries of nuclear facilities
• with low detection limits in high or changing gamma background
• with high throughput requirements
The FastTrack-Fibre™ is also very well suited for use outside the nuclear industry
for safeguarding purposes, law enforcement applications or monitoring of vulnerable
infrastructures for nuclear or radioactive devices.
