Photometer for Continuous Determination of Uranium in Radioactive Process Streams

A modified single-beam filter photometer for continuous determination of uranium in radioactive process streams is described. Because of a unique standardizing system, it is very stable, having a short-term variation of less than 1% and a calibration stability of 3%. The instrument has a remotely lo...

Summary:A modified single-beam filter photometer for continuous determination of uranium in radioactive process streams is described. Because of a unique standardizing system, it is very stable, having a short-term variation of less than 1% and a calibration stability of 3%. The instrument has a remotely located sensing unit with the ruggedness and simplicity required for production plant applications. The performance of the instrument for monitoring nonradioactive process streams under plant conditions is given.
