HOW SCINTILLATION DETECTORS WORK
Applications

A scintillator is a material that exhibits scintillation - the property of luminescence (sparkles of light), when excited by ionising radiation.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RADIATION AND RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS
Industry News

Radiation in the form of radiant particles or rays, is the result of a nuclear disintegration. 

How Thermo Luminescent Devices (TLDs) work

The Mini Instruments or Mini Monitors Radiation Detectors were first manufactured in Essex UK in 1963 and became a bench mark of accurate, reliable and easy to calibrate radiation detection instruments.

Detecting Radiation in Scrap Metal
Applications

Many countries, such as India, have regulations in place which require shipments of scrap metal destined to the country to be screened for radioactive materials prior to leaving the port of origin.

Transporting Radioactive Material
Industry News

Transport requirements for radioactive materials are very stringent and involves a great deal of time, effort and understanding prior to shipping radioactive materials.

Electronic Personal Radiation Dosimeter
Industry News

Employees should be issued with a personal radiation dosimeter if working in an area where there is a risk of exposure, or where exposure to ionising radiation is part of their daily role.Personal protection from ionising radiation is crucial for anyone working in an environment where there is a risk of exposure.

It is also a legislative requirement to protect your employees from receiving too high a radiation dose.
