Calibration bench AT-01 provides remote and hand positioning of moving platform in radiation bin along ionizing radiation beam axis. Remote positioning is performed from operator's working place, which may be at the distance up to 30 meters from the radiation bin. Positioning coordinates are displayed on digital indication device and can be read from graduation scales along bench foundation. Positioning is realized with platform moving speed of 20 cm/s, 4.5 cm/s, 1 cm/s, 2.2 mm/s, 0.36 mm/s, and a discreteness of 0.045 mm. Dosimeters readings are displayed on video monitor at operator's working place.
The platform with V-shaped bearing supports moves on cylinder-shaped guides fixed on bench foundation. There is working table moving perpendicularly radiation beam axis on moving platform and supports or lifting table could be placed on it. The platform has TV monitoring system of dosimeters' readings. The bench could be completed with a support to mount level and laser device. In this case graduation scale is mounted on bin wall along radiation beam axis.
The bench could cooperate with different radiators types (UPGD, KIS-NRD, AGAT-S etc.) meeting ISO 4037 requirements.
