- CZT solid state detector
- USB Powered
- MCX connectors with Analogue energy output, Timing output, MCA gate input
The GR1-A (Advanced) is a USB-powered gamma spectrometer with a 1 cm³ CZT detector and electronics. It has additional auxiliary input/outputs that greatly increase operational flexibility. The GR1-A is fitted with a mini USB connector and three MCX connectors that provide energy and timing outputs and gate inputs. It also comes with MultiSpect Analysis software. This application allows connection of multiple GR1-As to a PC, with the ability to display multiple spectra; both live and saved, from previous measurements. It also has the capability to match spectra to a pre-loaded library of over 400 nuclide spectra. (GR-1A)
MultiSpect Analysis software provides the spectrum acquisition, display and storage functions, and the export of data for further analysis. Note: One license per PC.
Energy Output: shaped and buffered detector output pulses with amplitude proportional to energy suitable as input to an external multichannel analyser (MCA)
Timing Output: A logic pulse triggered by each detected event and coincident with each output pulse
Gate Input: used to suppress pulse height output via the USB interface to K-Spect for anticoincidence. Energy and timing outputs are unaffected.
Available as;
GR1-A, with resolution < 2.5%
GR1-A+, with resolution < 2%
