INVAP presents the design of a stack monitor aimed as a technical solution for the STAX (Source Term Analysis of Xenon) project.In STAX project the emissions from stacks of MIPFs are measured at the source. As a continuation of its experience in Stack Monitoring, INVAP has designed a stack monitor based on a HPGe detector that meets the Hardware and Software requirements defined by STAX project.Due to its modular design, the monitor is easy to install, fulfilling the different requirements that facilities that already have a system for the monitoring of the stack may have.The hardware and software are described, and emphasis is put in the fact that it can be adapted to broad emissions regimes of the different MIPFs. The software complies with the requirements stated by STAX project for the transmission of the data to the IMS.
