Continuous alpha & beta particulates monitor
The BAB air monitoring beacon is used in nuclear facilities and provides continuous measurement and monitoring of atmospheric contamination from radioactive aerosols, including compensation of radon progenies for more accuracy. All data measured from the BAB beacons are displayed in real time or available remotely.
The BAB air monitoring beacons are available in two different versions:
- BAB-A7 version is specially designed for work station monitoring during maintenance operations or in dismantling work sites, where man-made noise immunity is highly recommended. BAB-A7 is available for stationary or mobile use.
- BAB-E exists as stationary version for outside use, and will be typically used for surveillance around nuclear facilities or for national monitoring.

- The radioactive dust is deposited by air suction on a filter paper placed in the BAB beacons.
- The suction flow rate is about 5 m3/h (it depends on dustiness and type of filter paper).
- The flow rate is calculated from the depression measured between the filter and the pump. This allows to detect any tear or dust clogging.
- Placed one centimeter above the sample, the detection system is based on two 300 μm thick silicon diodes with a surface of 360 mm2.
- The analog signal from the two diodes is amplified by a preamplifier with an output range of about 30mV/MeV.
- An amplifier increases the signal amplitude to 0.7V/MeV, and the signal is then used to produce the energy spectrum via an amplitude analyzer that encodes information to 512 channels.
