Introduction
22 LFXG-H Installation and Operation Guide
• Its shutter completely shields the radiation (source off) or lets it pass
through the process (source on) (if applicable)
Detector assembly
• Mounts opposite the source holder.
• Inside the flexible detector is a scintillator material, which produces light
in proportion to the intensity of its exposure to radiation.
• A photomultiplier tube detects the scintillator's light and converts it into
voltage pulses.
• The microprocessor receives these voltage pulses after amplification and
conditioning by the photomultiplier tube.
• The microprocessor and associated electronics convert the pulses into
an output that can be calibrated.
