Radiometric Complex for Recording the Volumetric Activity of Radioactive Inert Gases

  • Published:
Atomic Energy Aims and scope

Measuring the volumetric activity of radioactive inert gases in NPP emissions is one of the essential tasks of the radiation monitoring at NPP. The present article describes the complex UDGB-46R developed at SNIIP for recording the volumetric activity of radioactive inert gases in the range 103–1017 Bq/m3. Tests confirm its stated metrological characteristics. It includes sample extraction utilities, measurement channels, and a control block.
