MT-ERI-A11 EXRADIN SPOKAS PLANAR CHAMBER

Model 11 chambers have a planar (parallel-plate) geometry. The collector is circular of radius 10 mm. A collector of smaller size can be supplied on special order. An electrode gap of 2 mm gives a collecting gas volume of 0.6 cm3.

Three versions of the Model 11 chamber are available: A11 is made of air-equivalent plastic C552, P11 is made of conducting polystyrene-equivalent plastic, and T11 is constructed of the tissue-equivalent plastic A150. While planar chambers are usually recommended for electron beams, they offer a number of advantages for photon beams as well. The thin collecting volume enables excellent resolution in depth dose studies.

Features:

  • Planar geometry
  • Homogeneous construction
  • Complete guarding
  • Waterproof construction
  • Low mass collector
  • Gas flow capability
  • Integral flexible low-noise cable
  • Separable minimum scatter stem
  • Handsome wooden case
