ICS-4000
Radionuclide Identifier
The ICS-4000 Radionuclide Identifier is a hand held gamma-ray spectrometer that combines a multichannel analyzer with a high resolution Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) detector. The ICS-4000 is programmed to automatically analyze gamma ray spectra and report detected radionuclides and dose rates. Users can select from preprogrammed isotope libraries or can define custom libraries from a list of over 160 radionuclides.
ICS-4000 Features:
Dual Analysis Capability – The ICS-4000 is both a radionuclide
identifier and a MicroR and Survey Meter. An auto-ranging,
alarming dose rate meter provides audible and visual indicators.
The dose rate units and alarm levels are user settable. An alarm
log records the time and radiation level each time an alarm is
encountered.
Multiple Modes of Operation - Two modes of operation are provided: Normal and Advanced. In "Normal" mode a single keystroke begins analysis. "Advanced" Mode provides an expanded feature set. Spectra can be observed in either mode. All critical setup functions are password protected. The user interface is intuitive and easy to learn. A help key opens a window that describes the function of all controls.
Lightweight, Easy to Use - The ICS-4000 has a LCD with a backlight that is easy to read in dark or brightly lighted areas. The device keypad uses large tactile keys that can be operated even with heavy gloves. The ICS-4000 is provided with transparent waterproof decontamination bags for easy maintenance.
Rugged and Reliable –- The ICS-4000 is housed in a durable aluminum case that stands up to rigorous field use. The device operates across the temperature range of -10C - 50C. The ICS-4000 can run from a rechargeable battery that provides 24 hours of continual use or can be equipped with a battery pack that utilizes AA commercial off the shelf batteries.
Easy Access to Data Files - Onboard flash memory provides non-volatile storage of 300+ of spectra. Stored data files report the measurement conditions, identified isotopes, dose rate and integration time. Data files can be uploaded to a PC automatically using the ICS Explorer file management software.
Multiple Accessories Included - The ICS-4000 comes standard with a hard carrying case, RS-232 cable, battery charger, Users Manual and ICS-Explorer software. Also standard are a three year limited warranty and free software upgrades for the life of the instrument. Optional accessories include a spare battery, AA battery module, AC power module, soft carrying case and remote operation software.
