The Photonis boron-lined proportional counters (CPNB) are intended to measure neutron radiations in a source range of nuclear reactors and in all neutron source applications where safety is crucial. They operate at temperatures up to 200°C.
Detection of thermal neutrons in pulse mode
High safety of use
Customization according to the user’s needs
Description
Photonis boron-lined proportional counter work in pulse mode; it features a watertight HN connector.
The Boron 10 is a solid layer deposited by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) for Photonis counters that are qualified for the safety instrumentation start-up channels of more than 100 NPP in the world. Thin Boron 10 layers obtained by CVD process give unequaled life time and pulse resolution.
Due to the extreme operating conditions of CPNB, Photonis also recommends the use of an integrated mineral insulated cable designed specifically for the detector.
Main Features
Structure configuration: Coaxial.
Structure material: Aluminum.
Integral cable: Coaxial Mineral insulated cable for pulse transmission, high immunity. Integral cables are recommended for the signal and for the high voltage when operating in severe environments.
Connector: HN Mineral insulated connector for pulse transmission.
Insulators: As it is necessary to measure extremely low currents, insulators must be of very high quality and radiation resistant. Photonis only uses high-grade alumina insulators from qualified suppliers.
