China has become the world's largest producer and consumer of stainless steel. However, the industry started relatively late, with an imperfect system and low concentration. Many private enterprises face limitations in funding, small production scale, outdated equipment, and some still use induction furnaces for smelting, casting small ingots, and rolling. These issues lead to problems in rolling processes, product quality, and environmental protection. One significant issue is the presence of excessive radioactive elements like cobalt-60 (Co-60) in stainless steel due to production technology limitations. This results in radiation levels exceeding standards, posing serious health risks.
Cobalt-60 is a radioisotope of cobalt with a half-life of about 5.27 years. It emits beta particles that transform into nickel-60 and gamma rays. Its strong radiation can cause hair loss, damage blood cells, reduce white blood cell counts, and even lead to severe conditions like aplastic anemia, leukemia, or death. Given these dangers, countries have strict regulations on radioactive materials, including stainless steel products. Despite this, Chinese manufacturers often lack comprehensive oversight, and some small companies use waste steel containing radioactive materials, leading to non-compliance with safety standards.
Many small stainless steel companies lack proper testing equipment, resulting in the purchase of raw materials with high radiation levels. This leads to contaminated finished products, especially in regions like the Pearl River Delta and Yangtze River Delta, where many small-scale producers operate. These products may fail export inspections, leading to customs seizures and major economic losses. Therefore, it is essential for SMEs to invest in portable nuclear radiation detectors for real-time monitoring.
Purchase of large-scale testing equipment is impractical for most SMEs due to high costs and technical demands. A compact, high-sensitivity, portable radiation detector is an ideal solution. However, the market offers various models, making it challenging to choose the right one. The Inspector USB is a top choice, designed for accuracy, portability, and multiple detection modes, suitable for diverse applications such as emergency response, hospital X-ray rooms, customs inspections, and environmental evaluations.
The Inspector USB features a high-sensitivity sensor from LND, capable of detecting alpha, beta, gamma, and x-rays efficiently. It includes a built-in microprocessor for fast data analysis, customizable alarm settings, and internal memory for data storage. The device supports USB connectivity for real-time monitoring and data transfer. With a large LCD display, multiple measurement modes, and CE certification, it ensures reliable performance in both lab and field environments.
Applications include checking radiation leakage, building material radioactivity, landfill contamination, medical X-ray equipment, groundwater radium pollution, and more. It’s also useful for home decoration, jewelry, and porcelain inspection. The Inspector USB meets international standards, offering accurate, real-time measurements and robust design for extreme conditions.
Specifications include measuring alpha, beta, gamma, and x-rays using a halogen-filled Geiger counter tube with a 1.77†effective diameter. It displays readings in mR/hr, μSv/hr, CPM, CPS, and Bq, with a measuring range up to 1000 mR/hr and 350,000 CPM. The device supports custom alarm thresholds, has a 9V battery life of up to 2160 hours, and operates within a temperature range of -10°C to 50°C. Its compact size (150 x 80 x 30 mm) and weight of 275g make it highly portable.
