PINS3-CW-G2 Portable Isotopic Neutron Spectroscopy


PINS Overview
The Portable Isotopic Nuclear Spectroscopy (PINS) Chemical Identification System identifies dangerous compounds and mixtures non-destructively. The test object need not be opened or touched, providing significant safety benefits. As shown, PINS probes a test object with neutrons that excite the atomic nuclei within, causing the excited nuclei to produce gamma rays. The energy intensity pattern or spectrum of these gamma rays is unique for each chemical element, and by analyzing the gamma-ray spectrum, the PINS software identifies the chemical elements inside the test object and determines if the object contains a chemical warfare agent, a fill (such as sand), or a smoke generating chemical.

PINS3-CW-G2 combines the latest chemical analysis identification technology with the industry-leading ORTEC trans-SPEC-N high purity germanium platform.

The PINS3-CW-G2 eliminates the need for liquid nitrogen and a Californium-252 neutron source, providing ease of deployment in OCONUS missions. It offers built-in automatic ID of chemicals – all in a rugged design for field deployment.

Along with the addition of the trans-SPEC-N, the PINS3-CW-G2 also includes the additional capability and features such as:

  • No liquid nitrogen is required.
  • Uses a mechanically cooled, field deployable gamma spectrometer (ORTEC trans-SPEC-N).
  • No Californium-252 source is required.
  • Auto analysis of chemicals.
  • Uses a small, portable Neutron Generator that saves weight, power, and space.
  • Ruggedized laptop with latest PINS3 Chemical Analysis and Identification software.
  • 12 hour runtime with external rechargeable batteries.
  • Lightweight carbon fiber measurement stand.
  • USB and Power cables.
  • Safety kit.
  • Hardened wheeled transport cases.
