Photon counting head

H17712-01

The H17712 series is a photon counting head device consisting of a metal package photomultiplier tube, along with a high-speed photon counting circuit and a high-voltage power supply circuit. The high voltage supply for photomultiplier tube and the discrimination level are preset to optimum values, allowing photon counting measurement by just connecting a +5 V supply.
These have also over light detection function to output a signal at the state that output counts fall by excessive incident light. By this signal, measurement data can be judged that it is normal or not.

The H17712 series is high count linearity model. Compared to H10682 series, count linearity has expanded by a factor of 4.
