Ludlum Model 375P-336

Waste Radiation Monitor

Introduction

Ludlum Model 375P-336 Waste Radiation Monitor ● Model 375 Based Waste Radiation Monitor

● Two 168 in³ Indoor Plastic Scintillation Detectors

● Excellent Surface Contamination Screening Tool

● Ideal for Monitoring Personnel, Laundry, Medical Waste

● Also Monitors Small Articles, Baggage and Packages

● Programmable Alarms, Battery Backup, Networkable

● Outdoor Version Available - Model 375P-336-1

The Model 375P-336 is a Digital Model 375 Controller coupled to two 168 in³ (2753 cm³) plastic scintillation radiation detectors. The detectors and Model 375 Controller are indoor units and are typically wall mounted. This simple and cost-effective solution offers a simple system that is easy to operate and maintain. The controller supplies local alarms, but can also be connected to external alarms or even put onto an Ethernet network if desired. It additionally has a 24-hour battery backup to keep the system operational in the event power is lost. See Model 375 for additional detail and available options.

Medical Application

In the nuclear medicine department, the Model 375P-336 is ideal for monitoring personnel or laundry for possible contamination that may have been unknowingly spilled. The monitor may also be used as a radiation contamination triage device, to alert emergency department personnel of potentially contaminated patients or equipment coming into the emergency room.

Surface Contamination Inspection

Inspecting items using hand held instruments can be too time consuming in many cases. The Model 375P-336 facilitates a more rapid and uniform inspection by placing two relatively large sized scintillation detectors in close proximity to the incoming or outgoing articles undergoing inspection. Both detectors are continuously monitored by the digital controller so any offending item can immediately trigger an alarm. Alarm conditions can be setup to automatically halt production conveyance devices, notify the central office, and even alert key personnel to initiate an immediate response.
