RADSIM GS4

Train in Radiation Threat Detection Without Compromising Safety

ARGON ELECTRONICS

RADSIM Radiation Training Simulator

The RADSIM series of highly realistic simulation gamma radiological sources overcome the regulatory, financial and administrative burden of live radiological source based training scenarios is an entirely safe, environmentally friendly and cost effective manner.

What truly sets the RADSIM series apart is the realism of the simulation – hide the simulation detector training label and the “Pucker Factor” is as real as it gets!

Key Features

  • Dose rate and Dose readings and alarms indicating potentially hazardous radiation levels.

  • Inverse square law (1/r2) response and shielding effects of different materials.

  • Consistent readings across instruments each time the student revisits the same location within the exercise.

Implement Lifelike Scenarios

Create innovative search exercises by placement within wooden crates or plastic containers. Hiding the simulation source within the boot / trunk of a vehicle is easy and creates a very impressive scenario. Even though the vehicle body is made of a metallic material not only is the simulation source detectable at typically 10 metres (33 feet) distance; students can survey the vehicle to determine the location of the simulation source within the boot / trunk facilitating excellent vehicle search, checkpoint or road traffic accident exercises.

Isotropic Emission

The near isotropic source can be detected to a distance of up to 60 metres (200 feet) free space with a standard sensitivity simulation detector and 90 metres (300 feet) free space with a high sensitivity simulation detector enabling students to appreciate the difference in detector response sensitivity and characteristics.

Cost Effective Alternative to Live Sources

Radiological sources are very expensive to purchase and ultimately dispose of at end of life. The administrative tasks associated with the acquisition / registration, storage, transportation, deployment, regulatory compliance and disposal of radiological sources are eliminated.

Easy to store, transport, use and deploy Radsim series sources and Radiological survey meters, dosimeters and spectrometry simulators provide you with the most realistic radiation training capability available. The graphic below demonstrates how realistic the simulated response is.

No preventative maintenance, calibration or consumables (except batteries) are required ensuring whole life cost of ownership is minimal, expensive damage to real detectors is avoided and operational readiness is maintained.
