• MCA: Multichannel analyzer

older units

Official title: “Prisim 2000 Si(Li) and HpGe Detector Series”

Detectors [manual]:

Window type: ultra thin

Cooling method: LN2 or JT Cool

Typical system [Gammy and X-Ray detectors]:

• preamp
• PGT Model 326 LN2 level detector
• PGT Model 312, 314 or 315 HV PS
• Pulser
• PGT Model 347 Amplifier
• ADC
• MCA

Connections:

TODO: get better info on function/pinout of each

This unit was bought for reasonably low cost with hope to learn about them and maybe fix it. Worst case, this unit should work under atmosphere or scrap for the dewar

The screen is still intact. This was supposed to protect it:

My guess is that it got damaged during cleaning

• Claims 5 years of maintenance free operation
• Supports up to 50 foot gas lines
• “Retrofit available for existing detectors, including those of other manufacturers”
• 10-35C environment
• Down to 70K
• Copper gas line option

They had a LS30148 and a PRISM 60 for sale along with it, unclear if they somehow go together.
