Radiation Detector
The Canberra Cryo-Cycle(TM) Cryostat is a revolutionary innovation in the field of cryogenically cooled radiation detectors. This product is described as a "hybrid" cryostat because it utilizes both conventional liquid nitrogen and electric cooling. This arrangement, whereby the built-in cryocooler condenses the boiloff gas from an LN2 reservoir, provides the convenience of electric cooling and the reliability of liquid nitrogen cooling, something never seen before in this field. This capability overcomes one of the most common complaints against conventional electrically powered detector coolers which is loss of cooling during a power failure. With ...
