Like its Falcon 5000 predecessor, it offers many state-of-the art features, such as a thermal-cycle free cryostat, an integrated all-in-one design and laboratory-grade energy resolution. All this, however, is now also combined with an IP65 ingress protection rating, larger HPGe crystals and the option to provide the portable spectrometer with a Remote Detector Chamber (RDC) cryostat (enabling detector backshielding). Furthermore, the Aegis system is 12% lighter than the previous Falcon 5000 system. All these features make the Aegis spectrometer easily deployable for multiple use in the field … and in the lab.
