Introduction

In modern neutron research facilities the intensity of neutron beams can be significantly reduced while preparing its parameters. The intensity is monitored using neutron radiation monitors, which can be placed in various parts of the facility. It is convenient to adjust the parameters of the monitors, especially those located inside the protective casemates, remotely.

Materials and methods

For this purpose, the neutron spin-echo spectrometer SEM available in the instrument suite of the PIK neutron source in Gatchina, Russia, monitors are equipped with the remote solution of readout electronics, which can work with count rates of wide range and can be placed in the work sector of the operator.

Results

The first tests of readout electronics together with monitors at a compact neutron source was successfull completed.

Conclusion

The developed readout electronics is adaptable to different count rates, has the remote control of the 4 monitors and easy integrated into supervisory control solution. It has also been demonstrated that this solution is adaptable to various modes of measurement, however, full-fledged beam tests are required.
