Figure 2.1 – Connection of detectors 

 
 

2.2.2 Apply power supply voltage. 
2.2.3 Start  the  “TETRA_Checker”  software  on  the  PC  as  described  in  the  User  Manual 

(Appendix D) and make sure that detector parameters have being correctly read. 

The  detector  operability  can  be  checked  by  presence  of  indication  of  measurement  result  in 

corresponding window of the “TETRA_Checker” software. 

 

2.3 Use of a product 

2.3.1 Detectors do not require any actions of personnel during their operation. 
2.3.2 Measurement results are transferred to the external data exchange channel  by request of 

the external device. 

 

2.4 Adjustment 

2.4.1 Before performing adjustment prepare the detector according to 2.2. 
2.4.2 Change  of  sensitivity  coefficient  К  is  performed  by  correcting  the  “Sensitivity  index” 

parameter  using  the  “TETRA_Checker”  software.  Change  of  this  parameter  results  in  proportional 
change of the indications within all measurement range. 

2.4.3 Correction  of  indications  in  the  end  of  the  range  (more  than  0,4  of  the  upper  limit  of 

measurement  range)  is  performed  by  adjusting  the  “dead  time”  using  the  “Tetra_Checker”  software. 
Increasing “dead time” results in increasing indications at high count rates only. 

 

3 MAINTENANCE 

 

3.1 General notes 

Maintenance  is  performed  with  the  purpose  of  ensuring  reliable,  long-term  operation  of 

detectors. 

 

3.2 Safety precautions 

3.2.1 Before beginning to work with detectors familiarize yourself with this User Manual. 
3.2.2 During  all  operations  with  detectors  follow  occupational  and  radiation  safety 

requirements of current safety instructions in the company (enterprise). 

3.2.3 All cable connections and disconnections should be performed with the power supply cut 

off.  When  using  detectors  as  part  of  measurement  information  complexes,  systems  and  installations 
“hot” connection of cables is allowed (without switching detectors off). In this case the protective earth 
should  be  connected  to  corresponding  terminals  of  the  detector  and  of  the  device  receiving  signals 
from detector.
