Nucleonova made a Presentation of the Camera Compton V3 DAMAVAN, which is the official distributor in Spain and Portugal.
On the 8th of March was held at the Polytechnic University of Valencia in the presentation of the Camera Compton V3 of DAMAVAN, organized by Nucleonova, official distributor of this house in Spain and Portugal. The seminar was attended by representatives of companies, and university related to the nuclear sector, which explained the fundamental concepts of operation that make it possible to visualize the radiation. In addition, we showed practical examples of the results of the camera using previous measurements performed in radioactive facilities saved in the database of the software and watch live demonstrations using radioactive sources of Cs-137 and Bi-207.
The Camera Compton V3 is a radiation detector that allows you to perform measurements “in situ” and get to know with precision the origin and composition of the radioactive sources in the space. Its operation is based on the use of scintillation detectors and semiconductor for the detection of gamma radiation. This device uses the light and the temporal distribution of each event of scintillation to precisely locate each disintegration of the source, obtaining the spatial distribution and energy of these. Therefore, the Camera Compton V3 also allows the identification of isotopes, and the discovery of sources 4 Pi.
The attendees of the conference were able to check the operation of the camera and to test their usefulness for the identification of isotopes and the location of sources “in situ”. Among the uses of the Camera Compton highlighted the “mapping 360or” that offers the possibility to locate sources within a room, assuming a great advantage for the activities of dismantling and waste management in large spaces, where the location of the sources is one of the activities, which implies a greater use of resources.
