GM Stand Overview
The GM Stand from AETEC is an essential accessory for G.M. counting systems, Geiger detectors and radiation counter experiments. Additionally, it helps users position an end-window G.M. tube, radioactive sample and absorber tray in a proper laboratory arrangement.
Moreover, the stand can be housed inside lead shielding when background radiation reduction is required. Therefore, laboratories can use it with GM counters, radiation detectors, counting meters and nuclear radiation detector setups.
In addition, the stand includes adjustable sample and absorber trays. As a result, users can control the distance between the detector end window, source and absorber during beta or gamma counting experiments.
Product Description
The GM Stand for GM Counter has been designed to hold end-window G.M. tubes for radiation counting applications. It provides a stable and practical arrangement for positioning radioactive samples, absorber discs and detector tubes during laboratory experiments.
Additionally, the stand is made from precisely milled acrylic sheet. The acrylic body allows smooth sliding of sample and absorber trays, which helps students and lab users adjust the experimental geometry easily.
Moreover, the sample tray can hold planchets or disc-type radioactive standard sources such as beta or gamma sources. Therefore, users can perform counting experiments, radiation attenuation studies and detector response measurements with better positioning control.
In addition, aluminum absorber discs can be placed between the source and the detector. As a result, students can study beta absorption, gamma counting, radiation attenuation and detector response using a compatible GM counter or radiation counter system.
Furthermore, the stand is useful for educational labs, research laboratories, testing laboratories, calibration laboratories and instrument calibration facilities. Finally, it works as an important accessory for connecting end-window G.M. tubes with G.M. counting systems manufactured by AETEC.
Key Features
Firstly, the stand holds end-window G.M. tubes for GM counter experiments.
Additionally, it includes both sample tray and absorber tray arrangements.
Moreover, the tray position can be adjusted from the end window of the detector.
Also, the acrylic sheet construction provides a stable and smooth sliding arrangement.
