The next generation fully integrated High-Purity Germanium
digital spectroscopy system that
eliminates liquid nitrogen
and
is immune to thermal cycling.
The
Laboratory Detector Module LDM-1
is a
highly sensitive all-in-one HPGe gamma-ray spectrometer
for use in a variety of applications ranging from counting
labs to mobile laboratories.
•
Increases productivity and instrument uptime
due to the fact that thermal cycling is never required on a partial warm up. The
HPGe detector element is encapsulated in a metal sealed high reliability cryostat that does not contain molecular sieve.
•
Reduces cost and improves safety
since liquid nitrogen is not required. The Stirling-cycle cooler keeps the detector at a stable
cryogenic temperature.
•
Space saving integrated design
eliminates desk mounted hardware and excessive cabling that frees up additional lab space.
•
Eases installation
due to lightweight design of only 7.3 kg. The LDM-1 is ideal for confined spaces and mobile labs. It easily fits into
existing standard lead shields and only requires a single USB cable to connect to the computer.
•
Low power consumption reduces operating costs.
The LDM-1 is powered from a small 10–17 V DC supply that consumes less
than 30 watts. This also makes mobile installations simple.
•
Continuous operation
via redundant power options. The LDM-1 comes standard with an integrated battery that keeps the entire
system operating and counting for up to 4 hours. Additionally, with the optional battery extender LDM-1-OPT-1, the system
continues operating for 18 hours. The battery extender is also hot swappable so the system never stops counting.
