Transportable monitoring system
Abstract
A system for monitoring a reactor module housed in a reactor bay may include a mounting structure and one or more extendable attachment mechanisms connected to the mounting structure. Additionally, one or more monitoring devices may be operably coupled to the one or more extendable attachment mechanism, and the one or more extendable attachment mechanisms may be configured to selectively position the one or more monitoring devices at varying distances from a wall of the reactor bay to place the one or monitoring devices in proximity to the reactor module.
