Neutron Probe

The Neutron Probe detects thermal neutrons at 0.025 eV through fast neutrons reaching 15 MeV using advanced solid-state detection technology without helium-3 components. Dimensions measure 8.3″ × 8.3″ × 12.4″ with total weight of 11.8 lb (5.33 kg) composed of High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) moderator material surrounding the detector core. The rounded spherical shape ensures omnidirectional sensitivity to neutron radiation from all approach angles. Dose rate ranges span 1 µRem/hr to 10 Rem/hr with typical sensitivity of 380 cpm per Rem/hr and measurement accuracy of ±25% below 1 mRem and ±10% above 1 mRem.

Dose rate units display in cpm, cps, mRad/hr, µGy/hr, mrem/hr, and µSv/hr with total dose measurements in Mrad, µGy, mrem, and µSv. The probe features 3000:1 gamma rejection ratio for selective neutron identification in mixed radiation environments, with typical background under 1 cpm. An included orientation plate positions the probe against flat vertical surfaces for standardized measurement geometry. The Probe integrates as a smart probe containing onboard microprocessor and high-voltage circuitry, storing calibration data and supporting hot-swapping capability with any RDS Base Unit.

Nuclear facilities deploy the Neutron Probe for radiation protection surveys around reactor areas and spent fuel storage. Military teams conduct radiological reconnaissance at contaminated decommissioned weapons sites and hazardous materials incidents. Health physics professionals monitor neutron dose equivalent rates during industrial radiography operations and accelerator facility inspections. The ergonomic handle plus optional shoulder strap accommodates extended survey operations.

Tactical Supply Pakistan delivers advanced neutron detection meeting military defense and industrial inspection requirements through this solid-state probe design. Organizations achieve specialized neutron measurement capability with military-rugged construction meeting ANSI N42.34 standards.
