Proportional Counters with High Thermal Stability
The counters operate in proportional mode. The design of the counters allows them to be operated in conditions of elevated ambient temperature. The maximum operating temperature for each specific meter is specified in the specification.
The counters are designed for highly efficient registration of neutron radiation in radiometric devices, in control systems of nuclear reactors, in geophysical research, etc. Proportional counters operate in voltage range at which the amplitude of the pulse from the counter is proportional to energy of particle that caused ionization.
The advantages of proportional counters include relatively low operating voltages, the possibility of obtaining high counting speeds, and a long service life.
