Radiation detection modules
C12137 series
High accuracy, high sensitivity, compact radiation
detection module
The C12137 series is a radiation detection module containing a scintillator and MPPC^® (multi-pixel photon counter) designed to
detect gamma rays from ¹³⁷Cs (Cesium-137) and the like. The scintillator converts incident gamma rays into visible light, and
the MPPC detects the light down to extremely low light levels to measure low-energy gamma rays with high accuracy. The sig-
nal processing circuit and A/D converter are housed in a compact case. The modules provide a USB or RS-232C interface. The
products include sample software with functions for setting measurement conditions, acquiring and saving data, and drawing
graphs, etc.
Features
Gamma ray energy discrimination
Modular design for easy integration into devices
Compact and lightweight
Applications
Environmental monitoring and mapping
Screening such as incoming and outgoing inspec-
tions at manufacturing sites
Incorporation into portable, high-sensitivity detectors
Lineup
A total of eight types in four different sizes and two interfaces
(USB and RS-232C) are available that you can choose from ac-
cording to your application.
* The characteristics are the same between the USB type and
RS-232C type (the software specifications are different).
