The Model TCS-5000 Tritium Collection System is a portable tritium collection system consisting of a diaphragm pump, an electronic motor speed control and a removable polycarbonate silica gel column. The flow and volume of air passing through the system is measured by a microprocessor controlled Digital Flowmeter (DFM). The DFM utilizes a precision-machined differential pressure sensor to measure flowrate. The DFM displays on-board calculations on a bright large character LED display screen. Data download capability is available through the RS232 port.

Multiple operator selectable download frequencies are available thru the RS232 port for collection and/or storage of real-time data.

The unit is designed for continuous indoor use and weather protected outdoor use. Please consult the product specifications for the design temperature range and the installation category.
