Radiation Monitoring with uRadMonitor

[Marcolino]

Hi all,

I just finish to configure OpenHab to monitor and trace Radiation Levels in my zone. To to that I joined to http://www.uradmonitor.com/ and purchased the hardware.

Device is a small device with a power socket and a Ethernet Port. Once powered device start monitoring Radiation Level and push it to http://www.uradmonitor.com/ site for Worlwide monitoring System.

Just plug it and get Address your DHCP assigned to device.

Since latest firmware, a local web page and JSON is available.

So I write Items, Rule, Sitemap e persist to perform a local monitor Radiation.

Items:

Group gpRadiation (All)

Group gpRadiationCPM (All)

Group gpRadiationUSVH (All)

Number METEO_CHART_SWITCH "Periodo"

String METEO_RAD_JSON "uRadMonitor Json Out [%s]" { http="<[http://192.168.1.73/j:60000:REGEX((.*))]" }

Number METEO_RAD_CPM "Radiation [%d CPM]" <radioactive> (gpRadiationCPM, gpRadiation)

Number METEO_RAD_USVH "Radiation [%.3f uSv/h]" <radioactive> (gpRadiationUSVH, gpRadiation)

Number METEO_RAD_CPM_AVG_H "Radiation Avg Hour [%.0f CPM]" <radioactive> (gpRadiationCPM, gpRadiation)

Number METEO_RAD_USVH_AVG_H "Radiation Avg Hour [%.3f uSv/h]" <radioactive> (gpRadiationUSVH, gpRadiation)

Number METEO_RAD_CPM_AVG_D "Radiation Avg Day [%.0f CPM]" <radioactive> (gpRadiationCPM, gpRadiation)

Number METEO_RAD_USVH_AVG_D "Radiation Avg Day [%.3f uSv/h]" <radioactive> (gpRadiationUSVH, gpRadiation)

String METEO_RAD_MAIN_RECAP "Radiazione Recap [%s]" <radioactive> (gpRadiation)

I have one item to contain full JSON and than 2 Item for istant Value, 2 for last hour average and 2 for last day averge, and one with a daily recap for main page on sitemap. The first Item is filled with HTTP Bindings, others with a rule.

Rule:

rule "Radiation"

when

Item METEO_RAD_JSON received update

then

//Recupero il JSON

var String sRadJson = METEO_RAD_JSON.state.toString

logInfo("RAD.Calc","Calcolo Radiazioni da JSON: "+sRadJson)

//Recupero i CPM dal JSON

var String rad_cpm = transform("JSONPATH", "$.data.cpm", sRadJson)

logInfo("RAD.Calc","CPM: "+rad_cpm)

METEO_RAD_CPM.postUpdate(rad_cpm.toString)

//Calcolo i uSv/h

//RadRaw=(CPM/Sens)*10;

var Number rad_n_cpm = METEO_RAD_CPM.state as DecimalType

var float rad_usvh

var double probe_sens = 0.006315

rad_usvh = (rad_n_cpm.floatValue*probe_sens.floatValue)

logInfo("RAD.Calc","uSv/h: "+rad_usvh.toString)

METEO_RAD_USVH.postUpdate(rad_usvh)

//Calcolo Le medie orarie

var Number rad_cpm_avg_h = METEO_RAD_CPM.averageSince(now.minusHours(1))

METEO_RAD_CPM_AVG_H.postUpdate(rad_cpm_avg_h)

logInfo("RAD.Calc","CPM Medi ultima ora "+rad_cpm_avg_h.toString)

var Number rad_usvh_avg_h = METEO_RAD_USVH.averageSince(now.minusHours(1))

METEO_RAD_USVH_AVG_H.postUpdate(rad_usvh_avg_h)

logInfo("RAD.Calc","uSv/h Medi ultima ora "+rad_usvh_avg_h.toString)

//Calcolo Le medie giornaliere

var Number rad_cpm_avg_d = METEO_RAD_CPM.averageSince(now.minusDays(1))

METEO_RAD_CPM_AVG_D.postUpdate(rad_cpm_avg_d)

logInfo("RAD.Calc","CPM Medi ultime 24h "+rad_cpm_avg_d.toString)

var Number rad_usvh_avg_d = METEO_RAD_USVH.averageSince(now.minusDays(1))

METEO_RAD_USVH_AVG_D.postUpdate(rad_usvh_avg_d)

logInfo("RAD.Calc","uSv/h Medi ultime 24h "+rad_usvh_avg_d.toString)

//Riepilogo Principale

// Math::round((test).floatValue*1000.0)/1000.0

var String main_recap = Math::round(rad_cpm_avg_d.floatValue).toString + " CPM / " + Math::round((rad_usvh_avg_d).floatValue*1000.0)/1000.0 +  " uSv/h"

METEO_RAD_MAIN_RECAP.postUpdate(main_recap)

logInfo("RAD.Calc","Riepilogo: "+main_recap)

end

Peristence:

// for rrd charts, we need a cron strategy

everyMinute : "0 * * * * ?"

Hi Marcolino,

very nice try, thank you.

I'm also from Italy (Milan), quite interested on details (how to buy hw, ...).

Another question: is this also useful to monitor radon?

Thank you

Andrea

Hi Andrea,

you can contact team on http://www.uradmonitor.com/

This device can capture only Gamma Radiation, caused by cosmic event, or Nuclear Issue.

Radom and all of it derivate produce Alfa radiation, and so this device is not good. To detect Radon you can use this https://www.safetysirenpro.com/international_it/

Marco

Hi Marco,

only gamma, or also beta?

for radon, I'm trying to understand if this is viable for us, to be integrated into OH:

http://radioactivity.forumcommunity.net/?t=56597495

I will let you know

Andrea

[Marco Pozzuolo]

Hi Andrea,

only Gamma. Tube is inside a Alluminium case, and software is calibrated too.

Ask to Radu in uRadMonitor site and he can explain all doubts you have.

Let me know about Theremino

Marco

Ciao Andrea,

with this you can connect Safety Siren Pro to OpenHab
