Radiation detection modules C12137 series

Product catalog summary
Overview: The C12137 series by Hamamatsu is a compact, high-sensitivity radiation detection module designed for detecting gamma rays, particularly from Cesium-137. It integrates a scintillator and a multi-pixel photon counter (MPPC) to convert gamma rays into visible light and detect low-energy gamma rays with high accuracy.
Features:
  • High accuracy and sensitivity for gamma ray detection.
  • Compact and lightweight design for easy integration into portable devices.
  • Available in eight types with different sizes and interfaces (USB and RS-232C).
  • Includes sample software for setting measurement conditions and data management.
Applications:
  • Environmental monitoring and mapping.
  • Real-time food inspection.
  • Portable high-sensitivity detectors.
  • Screening at manufacturing sites.
Specifications:
  • Dimensions and weight vary across models, with the largest being 122 x 122 x 53.3 mm and 1570 g.
  • Scintillator material: CsI (Tl).
  • Sampling time adjustable from 0.1 to 60 seconds.
  • Operating temperature range: -10 to +50°C.
  • Power supply via USB or +5 V for RS-232C type.
Performance:
  • Counting efficiency for 137Cs ranges from 40 to 2000 cpm depending on the model.
  • Energy range from 0.03 to 2 MeV with energy resolution between 8% to 10%.
  • Measurement range for dose rate is 0.01 to 100 μSv/h.
  • Temperature stability is ±5% max within 0 to +50°C.
Design and Integration:
  • Modular design allows easy integration into devices.
  • High gain MPPC enables detection of low-energy gamma rays.
  • Compact design reduces the need for heavy shielding, beneficial for applications like food inspection.
Software: The series includes sample evaluation software for initial setup and data management, with source code available for custom application development.
Precautions: The modules are precision devices not designed for outdoor use or environments with vibration or shock without additional protective measures.

Radiation detection modules C12137 series-1

Radiation detection modules C12137 series High accuracy, high sensitivity, compact radiation detection module The C12137 series is a radiation detection module containing a scintillator and MPPC® (multi-pixel photon counter) designed to detect gamma rays from 137Cs (Cesium-137) and the like. The scintillator converts incident gamma rays into visible light, and the MPPC detects the light down to extremely low light levels to measure low-energy gamma rays with high accuracy. The signal processing circuit and A/D converter are housed in a compact case. The modules provide a USB or RS-232C interface. The products include sample software with functions for setting measurement conditions, acquiring and saving data, and drawing graphs, etc. Gamma ray energy discrimination Environmental monitoring and mapping Modular design for easy integration into devices Screening such as incoming and outgoing inspections at manufacturing sites Incorporation into portable, high-sensitivity detectors Lineup A total of eight types in four different sizes and two interfaces (USB and RS-232C) are available that you can choose from according to your application.

Radiation detection modules C12137 series-3

Radiation detection modules Radiation detection modules incorporating a compact and high-gain MPPC offer the following features: Feature 01 Detection of low energy gamma rays (down to 30 keV)* The C12137 series can acquire energy spectra and therefore can perform energy discrimination. is known to decay while emitting gamma rays at energies around 662 keV and 32 keV. The C12137/-01 can determine whether gamma rays is from by acquiring the energy spectrum from the low-energy gamma rays at around 30 keV. As the gamma rays become lower in energy, the level of light emitted by the scintillator weakens....
