HandFoot-Fibre™ 

The HandFoot-Fibre™ monitors are used for contamination screening of hands, feet and clothes for alpha, beta and gamma radiation. Due to their weight and agility these monitors are used in circumstances which do not require a full body monitor or for mobile monitoring purposes.

The monitor’s eight detectors are based on the state-of-the-art Mirion fibre detector technology, enabling a fast and reliable measurement process, even in high or fluctuating background conditions.

There are three versions available:

  • HandFoot-Fibre™ XL with alpha and beta sensitive RFD485 fibre detectors for the use in all nuclear environments.
  • HandFoot-Fibre™ A+ with RFD485 A+ detectors, featuring a discrimination of alpha and beta radiation.
  • HandFoot-Fibre™ MED featuring HybridFibre™ detectors, which are sensitive to alpha, beta and gamma radiation and particularly well suited for medical applications.

Fibre Detectors

For the highest performance requirements, the state-of-the-art fibre detector technology utilises scintillating fibre detectors that feature some of the industry’s lowest area of dead zones. This results in an outstanding sensitivity with an exceptionally high measurement homogeneity.

The clever detector design allows quick and easy repairs, for an economic and robust operation with minimal downtime.

Medical Applications

HandFoot-Fibre MED has been developed for medical applications. The HybridFibre™ detectors are detecting alpha, beta, and gamma radiation with a particularly high sensitivity for low energy radiation (up to 30 keV).

In handling medical isotopes like Co-57, Tc-99m, or I-125, the HandFoot-Fibre MED is an expert. A nuclide database is provided, and can be extended with user‘s own entries. The monitor applies to the EMC requirements of laboratory medicine.

HandFoot-Fibre™ Features
