Purpose of the development: The new device makes measurements on the surface, and the depth of water at the bottom of the reservoir, and not only measured EDR, but the gamma radiation. Treatment of gamma-ray spectrum allows us to identify and calculate the concentration of radionuclides in soil and sediments of water bodies.

Recommended application field: The device is used for radiation-ecological studies of reservoirs.

Technical characteristic: - sensitivity range to gamma radiation, MeV - 0.05 ... 2.0; - sensitivity of the gamma-ray detector - 200 pulses / s / Sv / h (for Cs-137). - the working range of count rate of gamma-radiation detector - 0 ... 104; - detector material - the scintillator (NaI 18x40); - operating temperature range, ° C - 0 ... + 50; - continuous operation in the standby mode, the built-in battery - 8 hours .; - power consumption, W, no more than 100 (with a maximum engine thrust); - the maximum speed, km / h - 5.4; - cruising range, m - 2000 (at a speed of 3 km / h); - sludge cm - 4; - turning radius, m - 1; - a maximum range of radio operation, m - 2000; - maximum distance transmission of telemetry data, m - 1000; - the depth of the measurement range, m - from 0.5 to 100; - the width of the sensor beam scanning depth - 11 °; - overall dimensions, mm, no more than 1600x450x260; - weight, g, not more than - 3500.

Advantages over analogues: Software (SW) performs all functions in real time: - telemetry data collection (counting rate of a surface detector gamma-ray spectrum, the battery voltage, the GPS - data); - data transfer "on the shore"; - receiving and displaying the current values of the notebook; - mapping; - processing of gamma-ray spectrum.

The development stage readiness: Tested experimental exploitation order
