Description
The PGI-01 Panoramic Gamma Irradiation System is a fixed gamma irradiation system developed for the calibration and testing of personal dosimeters and small radiation detector devices.
When used with an appropriate radionuclide source, the PGI-01 enables the irradiation of dosimeters within a controlled gamma field. The system offers a practical solution, particularly for applications where multiple dosimeters need to be calibrated or tested in the same session.
The source within the irradiator is moved electromechanically from a safe shielded position to the operational position. The thick lead shielding structure allows for the safe use of high-activity sources.
The optional dosimeter holder and rotary table system assist in the accurate and repeatable positioning of multiple dosimeters. The rotary table structure supports calibration accuracy by reducing the effect of potential homogeneity differences within the gamma field.
The system can be managed via a local control unit with an LED display and can optionally be controlled via a computer. The integrated safety system prevents the source from moving to the operational position during emergencies or automatically retracts the source to the shielded safe position if it is in an open state.
