Counter-Tubes (GM-, P-, N-)
Geiger-Mueller Tubes
For more than 50 years VacuTec has been developing and manufacturing Geiger-Mueller Tubes in top-standard glass and chrome iron technology. In the high-dose range and for detection of particle and low-energy X-radiation VacuTec can supply newly developed counter tubes with iron chromium cathodes as miniature and end-window tubes. With this wide range of products we can offer the right counter tube for a multitude of applications. The development of customized tubes is also a part of our activities.
Typical Applications
VacuTec's Geiger-Mueller Tubes are designed for detection and measuring of:
- Alpha-particles
- Beta-particles
- Gamma-radiation
- X-radiation
Fields of applications:
- Personal security (e.g. dosimeter, survey-meter)
- Recording of radiation levels (e.g. Dose Rate Monitors)
- Contamination-Monitoring
- Non-destructive material testing and thickness measurement (on-line density- and thickness measurement)
- contactless level measurement
- Oil industry (borehole measurement)
- Scientific research
For usage in the fields of dosimetry and environmental protection our counter tubes are available with energy compensation according to Ambient Dose Equivalent H*10 (type A) or Exposure Dose Equivalent (type E). All types meet the strict standards of PTB, ANSI and IEEE.
Besides Geiger-Mueller Tubes as components we also offer complete Dose Rate Monitors for environmental protection, room and personal monitoring.
Selection Guide
Geiger-Müller-Tubes are designed for various fields of applications.
Alpha-, Beta- and Gamma-Detectors:
Detection of Alpha, Beta and Gamma radiation at low dose rates. This mica-window tubes are used for monitoring all types of radiation in the environment.
Beta und Gamma Detectors:
These detectors are used for detection of Beta and Gamma radiation at low, intermediate and high dose rates.
Gamma Detectors:
Detection of Gamma radiation at low dose rates. These tubes are suitable for use in environmental monitoring, and for points which may have particles of radioactive sources on them.
