Now available Alpha/Beta counters from Ortec

Gross Alpha / Beta Counters are used to measure total alpha and/or beta activity of a radioactive sample. This is a “gross” measurement only in that it reflects the total activity of the sample. There are three basic configurations: Automatic Counters using a single detector, Manual Counters using a single detector and Manual Counters with multiple detectors. The alpha / beta counters incorporate either a gas-flow proportional detector or a dual- phosphor scintillation detector.

Manual Counting Systems

MANUAL alpha/beta counters incorporating either gas-flow proportional detector or dual-phosphor scintillation detector technologies. These manual, single detector systems are ideally suited for applications requiring long count times for a small number of samples.

Automatic Counting Systems

AUTOMATIC alpha/beta counters incorporating either gas-flow proportional detector or dual-phosphor scintillation detector technologies. These automatic systems are ideally suited for applications requiring relatively short counting times for a large number of samples.

Multi-Detector Systems

ORTEC offers a superior alpha/beta counting system for customers seeking premium performance in a multi-detector, high throughput, high sensitivity system. The Multi-Detector System (MDS) is a third-generation, multi-detector, low-background system for low-level background alpha and beta counting. The MDS series can be configured to accommodate 4, 8, 12, or 16 detectors to facilitate customer specific sample volume and throughput rate requirements.
