ICS ® Integrated Cryocooling System Introduction ICS® — ORTEC’s newest integrated, mechanically cooled system for HPGe radiation detectors exploits the latest generation in cryogenic technology to provide LN2 free operation with premium detector performance. ICS is now available in two versions to support an even wider selection of detector models. ICS and ICS-E models incorporate a unique, hardened cryostat, for superior integrity, reliability, and operational performance. This feature allows instant recovery after a loss of power, eliminating the need to fully thermal cycle the detector...

Note: Resolution is warranted at room temperature. *Performance of an upgraded detector is warranted to be within 10% of the combined resolution and efficiency of the HPGe detector at the time of the upgrade. This will be determined at the factory before reconfiguration. An example of combined relative efficiency and resolution is a 5% increase in resolution and a 5% decrease in relative efficiency, or a 10% increase in resolution and 0% decrease in relative efficiency. Consult the factory for upgrade of a non-ORTEC detector into hardened vacuum or PopTop configurations.

Typical Applications • Commercial, Government and Environmental Labs - The ICS is a superb choice due to no compromise of resolution performance and low audible noise. There is no requirement for refilling the LN2 on a regular basis, providing increased cost savings, detector availability, and minimizing work hazard. • Nuclear Power and Industrial Plants - The ICS provides an advantage in deployments where power failures are frequent. The hardened cryostat increases detector availability by eliminating the need for thermal cycling and reduces equipment down time. With no need for regular...

Note: Internal and External preamp configurations are with reference to the cooler enclosure. “Internal” means the preamp is inside cooler enclosure which makes the detector capsule smaller. “External” means the preamp is outside of the cooler enclosure and typically inside the detector capsule. Most standard streamline and PopTop detectors have the preamp inside the detector capsule as described for the “External” configuration.

Accessories The ICS STAND 2 is intended for single user installation of any ICS model. It incorporates a multi-positional height selector to set overall operating height, and uses a pneumatic arm to raise and lower the ICS. This variable height selection accommodates most commercial shield tables. Note, the ICS STAND 2 is for vertical orientation only. Caution: Since the ICS must be installed into a shield from below, the user must ensure the shield opening is greater than the detector seal-clamp diameter on the ICS/ICS-E. (Dimension BB.)
