Air Particle Sampler

Abstract

Portable Air Particle Samplers (APS) are used to sample for airborne radioactivity on board nuclear powered ships and in nuclear ship maintenance facilities in confined work areas where the installed Air Particle Detectors (IM-239/WDQ) are ineffective. The current HD-732 (AC powered) and HD-1151 (DC powered) are obsolete and will shortly be unsupportable. COTS equipment will be evaluated to replace the two current models, to include the feasability of finding an AC/DC unit that would simplify logistical support by combining the two units into one.
