RadEye HEC+ Alpha/Beta Sample Counter
Shop All Thermo Scientific ProductsDescription
Obtain simultaneous alpha and beta radiation measurements with the Thermo Scientific™ RadEye™ HEC+ portable sample counting system. The system incorporates a windowless, low noise, dual phosphor scintillation detector that is sensitive for beta emitters from approximately 10 keV, low energy X-ray emitters from approximately 3 keV and alpha emitters. Readings are automatically logged for later retrieval to a PC. The maintenance free RadEye HEC+ uses sophisticated low power technology components and microprocessor based fully automatic self checks.
- Simultaneous alpha/beta measurements in classic mode
- Special EC-Mode measures low energy beta emitters (e.g. Ni-63) and electron capture nuclides (e.g. Fe-55, Mn-54, Cr-51)
- Cost effective alternative to liquid scintillation counters for Ni-63 and H-3 samples
- 800 hours battery operation
- Customized library of up to 16 nuclides with automated half life correction
- Simple detector performance verification with 9 g Lutetium Test Adapter
