The Bubble Technology Industries BDR-III automatic
reader was specially designed for fast and accurate analysis of the complete
range of patented neutron bubble detectors.
BTI bubble detectors consist of an elastic polymer throughout which droplets
of a superheated liquid have been dispersed. When these droplets are struck
by neutrons they form small gas bubbles that remain fixed in the polymer
to provide a visual record of the dose. Dose is directly proportional
to the number of bubbles. BTI detectors are used around the world at nuclear
research institutions, nuclear utilities and medical accelerator installations.
The BDR-III reader is the instrument of choice for users who process intermediate
or large numbers of bubble detectors as part of their dosimetry program.
Counting parameters are preset at the factory and are accessible in software
only at a supervisory level (password protected).
Once detector serial numbers, sensitivity and user information are entered
into a look-up table, accessed through the Factory Set-up menu, the BDR-III
will operate completely unattended.
The detector is identified (via external bar-code reader), bubbles are
counted, dose is calculated and all information is stored in an on-board
database. Each detector file has appended its related digital photo for
archival and/or audit purposes.
Each BDR-III system ships complete with an optical unit, cabling, frame
grabber card and application software. The external PC and bar code reader
are optional. The reader is compact, lightweight and simple to use. The
Bubble Technology Industries BDR-III automatic bubble counter is the ideal s
compliment to BTI neutron bubble detectors for fast |
