Remote radiation sensing module based on a silicon photomultiplier for industrial applications.
We have designed a silicon-photomultiplier-based remote radiation-sensing module consisting of a master port (displaying radiation information) and a slave port (detects radiation, transmits to master). The master port merges radiation and dose values and displays them. Counting detection efficiency and radiation response simulated using MCNPX were used to calibrate the module. We performed radioactive source tests ((137)Cs, (22)Na, (60)Co, (55)Fe) and compared experimental and simulation results. Remote detection capability was demonstrated and the detection accuracy was determined. Applications abound in the radioactivity industry.
