Ludlum - Model 4525 Series -Vehicle Monitor
The Ludlum 4525 Series of Vehicle Monitors represents state-of-the-art technology at detecting orphan radiation sources and NORM at facilities such as scrap yards, recycling companies, landfills, and foundries.
LMI has over 1300 Model 4525 Series systems installed worldwide. Click here to view a map of the Model 4525 installations.
The 4525 Series detectors are ruggedized, large plastic scintillation systems that can be optimally arranged to monitor moving vehicles entering into the system. Each detector system can be configured with two to six large detectors. Real-time data acquisition and analysis is performed directly at each detector system and then reported to a central PC for logging, reporting, and alarm notification. Generation IV systems (2500 in3 detectors) are upgradable, have a lower cost of ownership, and have a lower initial purchase price.
Up to four detector systems (lanes) can be networked together via Ethernet or wireless to a central PC so that vehicles entering from either direction can be monitored in real time. Each detector system additionally includes a remote control/annunciator panel to support operator awareness, alarm acknowledgement, and if necessary, backup operation in the event the central PC is unavailable.
Data from all the system sensors are acquired and checked by powerful, field-tested, and time-proven algorithms designed to check each load vigorously in a multi-dimensional, multi-layered manner before declaring any load as clean. Any abnormality is immediately alarmed and annunciated both locally and remotely. An optional camera system can capture the image of the offending vehicle. The image is included in the logged data for permanent record keeping. Alarms can also be configured to automatically notify shift supervisors directly by e-mail if desired.
The system is designed for ease of use and can be customized to accommodate a wide variety of site and application specific criteria. Intuitive menus and controls combined with pre-defined automatic event handlers ensure each situation is handled properly and consistently.
Retrofit Option
The Model 4525 Series can also be retrofitted to be used with existing vehicle monitor equipment. Contact Ludlum Sales or your Ludlum sales representative regarding your requirements.
