Nuclear Measurements Corporation (NMC) is a privately held company based in Indianapolis, Indiana. It is a maker of instrumentation for the nuclear industry.

History

[edit]

NMC was founded in the early 1950s. Their analog products included Geiger counters, gamma and neutron detectors, survey meters, and soil analyzers. Some are now considered museum pieces.[1]

After going digital in the early 1980s, its flagship product became the PIOPS ("Programmable Input Output System"), a portable cart unit with embedded systems used to measure air samples for radioactive gases and particulate matter.
