Chapter 6: Calibration Procedures

6-35

Calibrating the Scintillation Tube Detector

The calibration procedure uses the Calibration LED on the
Calibration Board as an adjustment reference.

Scintillation Detector Calibration Procedure

Clear the inspection tunnel of all containers so that nothing is
blocking the gamma inspection beam.

Turn the High Voltage Output Adjustment counterclockwise
until it stops.

Figure 6-3.

Calibrating the STD.

Attenuate the inspection beam by placing a good production
container in the inspection tunnel so that it blocks the
inspection beam.

If your FT-50 is the extra wide inspection tunnel model, you do
not need to attenuate the inspection beam unless the LEDs are
constantly at maximum.

No.
