Original Press Release:
Digital Gamma Spectrometer with Ethernet Capability Now Available
OAK RIDGE, TN-The ORTEC® business unit of AMETEK Advanced Measurement Technology (AMT) has announced the release of the DigiBASE-E, an all-in-one highperformance Digital Gamma Spectrometer for scintillation detectors, built into a standard 14-pin photomultiplier tube base.
The DigiBASE-E can operate at ultrahigh count-rates, consuming very low power. High maximum throughput is available through the use of a new trapezoidal filter with lower deadtime per processed pulse. The instrument features an Ethernet (PoE) communications interface from which it can be conveniently powered, making network implementation simple.
The DigiBASE-E can be used in a wide variety of radiation spectroscopy applications and features both the conventional pulse height analysis mode of data acquisition as well as the powerful list mode. Flexibility in data acquisition gating logic and the provision of a 32-bit counter channel makes the DigiBASE-E a drop-in solution for a wide variety of application situations.
"Development of this product was as a direct result of customer inputs. It provides a range of solutions to our clients needs from simple single detector configurations to complex scintillation detector networks or arrays. Direct connection to and power over the Ethernet greatly simplifies the implementation process," states Ben Kennedy, Product Manager, ORTEC Detectors & Electronics, Research Market Segment.
ORTEC has more than 40 years of experience in the design and manufacture of highly sensitive radiation detectors that are used by government and industrial laboratories, nuclear facilities and medical research and in nuclear safeguards. It is one of only two manufacturers worldwide with the ability to produce both high-purity germanium and high-resolution radiation detectors from it. ORTEC also is a leader in digital signal processing electronics and associated software.
