TASLImage radon dosimetry system
The TASLImage radon dosimetry system is a highly sophisticated radon analysis system. Systems have been sold worldwide and passed the ISO 17025 accreditation. We currently operate a UK validated radon measurement service utilising our system.
System performance
| Readout time | 30-80s per plastic or ~1 hour for a tray (49 pcs) |
| Lower detection limit | 5 Bq.m-3 |
| Upper detection limit | 15 MBq.m-3 |
| Accuracy of calculated doses | 3-6% in the range from 200-5,000 Bq.m-3 |
| Output format | csv file or Excel |
The complete measurement system comprises:
- Fully automated high specification image analysis readout system with high throughput and unparallelled accuracy and low background. The system can read both our own proprietary format of detectors, and also the "Autoscan" style of detectors, including automatic ID reading
- High sensitivity, low background TASTRAK PADC plastic elements, cut and scribed to customer requirements
- Stainless steel etch/scan holders which transfer between etching and scanning without the need to remount the detectors (see below).
- (Optional) Ready-to-use radon detectors in smart unobtrusive holder, housing TASTRAK PADC plastic
- Full etch processing facilities
- Drying cabinet
- All necessary software and work instructions
- Full operator training available
The TASLImage radon dosimetry system is unique in that it analyses and characterises each individual track to produce a dose measurement. The algorithm discriminating an etched track from a background feature, whether it is a scratch, a hair etc., does this by using a large number of parameters relating to the characteristics of a track. The system is completely automatic, requiring only a button click, and will provide a dose measurement for each piece of plastic. The scan data is automatically converted to a dose measurement and the results are displayed in a record database.
