Description
The SG-1R probe for gamma measurement is designed to be used with any CSP™ survey meter. Its good sensitivity makes it ideal to detect gamma emitters starting from background level.
FEATURES
- Gamma sensitive measurement
- 1″ x 1″ NaI(Tl)
- Belongs to CSP™ family
- Calibration via PC
- Dynamic energy discriminator button
The SG-1R unit is part of the Canberra™ SMART Probe (CSP) family. It includes all key components of hardware circuitry (high voltage power supply, amplifier, discriminator, etc.). Also, the intelligence associated with controlling those components is located in the probe – that is control and storage of key parameters, settings, calibrations, probe ID, alarm settings (10 values for each unit to display with default setting), etc. Thus the probe is a fully integrated subsystem talking and transmitting the measurement to the instrument, which is used for display.
With high voltage and digitization of the data occurring in the probe rather than the instrument, measurement quality is no longer dependent on external device quality (cable, host instrument). Moreover, a CSP probe is using a serial protocol to communicate with the host which can be an instrument or a PC. Once calibrated, the SG-1R probe is ready to be used as a plug and play probe to start a QA measurement in CPS, R, R/h with US units survey meter; or c/s, Sveq, Sveq/h with IS units survey meter. The SG-1R probe connects to the CSP survey meter via a 1.5 or 20 meter CSP cable.
SG-1R probe is able to store up to 1000 data points from a data-logging procedure handled via the host instrument. These data are: Index, date/time, measurement value, selected unit and counting time.
