Decontamination Equipment

Critical Decontamination Equipment… Too Often Poorly Tracked

On nuclear sites, decontamination equipment is vital to:

• limit the spread of contamination after operations,
• prepare a zone before intervention,
• restore a room, area, or equipment to compliance.

Yet these assets — often shared, mobile, or pooled — quickly escape precise tracking:

• Where are they located?
• Are they complete?
• Are they in proper working condition?
• Who last used them?

Without clear answers, efficiency drops — and radiological risk control is compromised.

Common field issues

• No clear inventory of available decontamination equipment
• Equipment misplaced or temporarily diverted to another zone
• No traceability of use (which team? for which operation?)
• No visibility on availability or operational status
• Missing or inaccessible technical sheets / operating instructions
• Equipment not properly cleaned between uses

How BROLZ helps

With BROLZ, every decontamination tool becomes a fully identifiable, traceable and assignable ITEM — just like any other critical asset.

Key features:

• Structured inventory of decontamination equipment (foam cannons, sprayers, lances, etc.)
• Assignment to a specific zone, project, or building
• QR code access on-site to technical sheets, last uses, and operational status
• Instant issue reporting
• Addition of comments, photos, and usage history
• Real-time location and movement tracking
• Follow-up of associated maintenance

What changes with BROLZ

• Full visibility on availability and condition of each decontamination asset
• Less wasted time searching for equipment or documentation
• Improved safety: no use of non-compliant or poorly cleaned equipment
• Easier safety audits with immediate access to usage and maintenance records
• Secure sharing of equipment between projects without losing traceability

Coming soon: A practical guide

We are preparing a hands-on guide to decontamination equipment management, covering:

• Core inventory to establish
• Lifecycle records for critical tools
• Consumables and refills tracking
• Rules for allocation & cleaning
• Typical use cases: surface, area, and tool decontamination

The PDF will be available soon.

A foam cannon out of service on D-day? That’s one more contamination risk.

With BROLZ, you always know what’s available, where it is, in what condition — and why
