Detector
See note 2
Note: (1)
The Detector chiller HEAT DRY 1 is shipped within GEMS packaging.
Note: (2)
The detector should be stored at 10–40
°
C and less than or equal to 90% RH in the plastic
wrapped shipping box. (This should include two bags of desiccant as well). The lowest
temperature (e.g. 10
C) and humidity is preferable. If they are to be stored outside of
their shipping box or in the inner shipping box without plastic wrapping they should be
stored at 20
°
C or less and 30% RH or less. In terms of transportation, do not expose to
temperatures below –20
C in its shipping box for more than 15 hours. The detector will
reach the ambient temperature after 20–25 hours. The detector should not be allowed to
reach temperatures less than –10
C or irreparable damage to the detectors scintillator
will occur.
Care must be taken when removing a detector from a shipping box. If the detector
has been subject to cold temperatures for an extended period the detector in the box
should be allowed to sit in the plastic wrapped box to reach room temperature. This
will prevent condensation from occurring. Condensation on the detector can cause
irreparable damage to the electronics.
