Safety
Operating our neutron generators is not only highly economic and user friendly but also very safe and low-risk
- Only radiates neutrons when it is switched on
- Consistent Output controlled by voltage and current
- Industrial PC controlled
- Safety interlock circuits provided
- May allow more to be achieved with less total neutron output (MCNP analysis of line source required)
- Contains no radioactive isotopes at delivery (D-D version)
- Production rate of Tritium is extremely low due to self consumption
- Lowest class for disposal of radioactive waste
- Gas will be recovered during servicing
- Chamber classified as an IAEA Class 7 UN2911 excepted package transport container
- D-T/D-D version permits gas recovery and recharge
- Free gas pressure in operating reactor chamber is a low grade vacuum
- Leakage scenarios are below hazard definition limit
- Welcomed by radiation safety authorities as a replacement for radionuclide neutron sources
- May enable lower industrial insurance risk assessments and charges due to low inventory of radioactive isotope (tritium)
- No environmentally harmful SF6-gas
- No glass parts, no risk of releasing T during a leak
