Our Type X Standard assemblies are a family of scintillation
detectors characterized by having a right circular cylinder geometry and
one open face. Each Type X detector is ready for coupling to a
photomultiplier tube of your choice.
The detector is encased in a metal housing with a glass optical
window at one end. A variety of crystal materials and construction
methods are available. Specifications which apply to all Type X
detectors are shown in the general specifications table.
The Type X Family includes end-well,
side-well, thin window assemblies, and gamma camera crystal styles, in
addition to the popular solid cylinder styles. |

Features:
Type X detectors are supplied ready for
interfacing to a photomultiplier tube of your choice.
Choose from a variety of crystal materials, sizes,
styles and options.
Use a series of Type X detectors with one or more
basic photomultiplier tubes.
These detectors are available in solid, end-well,
and side-well construction.
Thin window assemblies are available for detection
of x-rays between 3 and 100 kev. Dimensions range up to 3" diameter
and 0.236" (6 mm) thickness. Entrance window is either 0.001"
thick aluminum foil, 0.005" or 0.010" thick beryllium
foil options.
