How it works

Discover how the siloxane monitor works and its applications in the field. Understand the technology used to handle the sampling and measurement of biogas or landfill gas and the challenges in measuring gases with high levels of contaminants in an on-site harsh environment. Learn how the system is used to monitor Activated Carbon filter life, how the filters break down and the potential impact of releasing Siloxane laden gases to CHP engines. See how the siloxane monitor provides a constant data stream to enable considered operational decisions to be taken to best optimise engine output and manage carbon costs.

FAQS | Radiation Simulation

  • How can you simulate radioactive contamination?

    A non toxic simulant such as LS1 from Safe Training Systems can be applied to a surface where it will slowly evaporate leaving a small gas cloud, a modified contamination meter can then be used to detect this apparent radiation causing the meter to display counts as if seeing real radiation.

  • What is the range of a radiation simulator?

    Radiation field simulation is based on the use of a radiofrequency source and detector – the limitation to the range is the available power of the transmitter which in the case of the mini-Source range from STS is approx. 15m.

  • Can radiation simulators demonstrate shielding attenuation

    The radio frequency system used by STS will be attenuated by various materials to varying degrees, glass and thin wood will have a small effect whilst brickwork or concrete walls will cause much higher attenuation and metal will shield the source entirely.

  • Can you simulate inverse square law with a simulator?

    Inverse square law can be demonstrated used the STS radiation field simulation systems – these operate using radio waves which like ionising radiation have an inverse square response.

  • Do radiation simulators have a shelf life?

    Liquid (LS1) and solid (SS4) simulants from STS have a shelf life of 5 years from date of manufacture.
