Diagnostic Radiology: Ionization Chambers
Flat Chambers
1 cm³, 112 cm³		   Type 77334, 77335
Flat Chambers 112 cm³ and 1 cm³  
The flat ion chambers 1 cm³ and 112 cm³ are suitable for precise dose measurements in the useful X-ray beam. The 1 cm³ chamber is calibrated from 25 kV to 35 kV and from 50 kV to 150 kV with filtering corresponding to a position behind or in front of a patient.

 
The 112 cm³ chamber is calibrated from 50 kV to 150 kV with patient-equivalent filtering. The maximum polarizing voltage for both chambers is 100 V. The area density of the 1 cm³ chamber is 7.1 mg/cm² and 24 mg/cm² of the 112 cm³ chamber. The chambers can be supplied by a BNT or TNC or PTW-M connector for operation in connection with a UNIDOS or UNIDOS E dosemeter. The NOMEX dosemeter requires an M connector. A radioactive check device is available to correct air density and carry out function tests.
 
Features:
  • The 1 cm³ chamber makes it possible to measure doses of mammography and dental X-ray devices as well as radiographic and fluoroscopic devices
  • The 112 cm³ chamber is designed for radiographic and fluoroscopic dose measurements behind a phantom (25 mm Al)

 

 
Flat Chamber 30 cm³   Type 233612
Flat Chamber 30 cm³  
The 30 cm³ flat chamber is especially designed for X-ray dose measurements in air down to
35 keV radiation energy. The maximum polarizing voltage is 500 V. The area density of the entrance window is 90 mg/cm² . The chamber can be supplied by a BNT or TNC or PTW-M connector. It can be operated in connection with a dosemeter UNIDOS or UNIDOS E.
A radioactive check device including check source and shielding is available to correct air density and carry out function tests. Using the appropriate holder, the check source can be positioned and oriented at the same place on the chamber.
Features:
  • Enables dose measurements of diagnostic X-ray qualities in air
  • Can be used down to 35 keV radiation energy
  • Comes with a holding stem for mounting in the radiation field
