General Operating Conditions
Standard detectors can be stored at temperatures from
-15 to +45 °C. The packaging must ensure that the rate of detector temperature
variation does not exceed 0.25 °C per minute (15 °C/h). This condition must be
maintained until the crystal is unpacked after shipping.
For standard detectors, the operating temperatures
are typically in the range from 0 to +45 °C.
The allowable storage time depends on the specific
detector type, but is not less than one year.
Scintillation detectors having increased resistance
to external effects are available for special applications. Special detectors withstand
overloads from several units to 30000 ms–2, and the frequency range of
vibration loading can be in the range from 0.5 to 3000 Hz.
Special ruggedized detectors have been developed
intended for service at temperatures up to 200 °C.
Scintillation detectors combining increased vibration
and thermal resistance can be specially ordered. |
