Development of Multi-channel Amplifier-discriminator Based on Measurement System of Neutron Fluence Rate Relative Distribution in Reactor

For the measurement of neutron fluence rate in reactor and reliable assurance of γ count measurement of activated 55 Mn-58 Ni alloy irradiated foils in reactor, 9-channel amplifier-discriminator was developed. The main technical parameter test and application test show that the gain of each channel amplifier-discriminator is continuously adjustable from 1 to 21, the threshold of each discriminator circuit is continuously adjustable, the maximum count rate and sensitivity of discriminator circuit are high, and the system has stable property and excellent anti-interference. In conclusion, relevant technical parameters can guarantee the real-time and long-term stable measurement of neutron fluence rate relative distribution in reactor, with the technical parameters that gain stability of amplifier is less than 1%, the minimum input pulse width of discriminator circuit is greater than 0.1 μs, and the maximum count rate of discriminator is less than 4×10 6 s -1.
