The Hidex 300 SL#

The Hidex 300 SL is a an automatic liquid scintillation counter with an automatic sample changer and a triple photomultiplier tube detection assembly. It is used to measure the activity of liquid scintillation samples.

Key features of the Hidex 300 SL:

  • Automatic sample changer: Typical scintillation vials are loaded in sample racks. A robotic loading arm transfer the vials from the sample racks to the measurement chamber.

  • Triple-PMT detector technology: It utilizes three PMTs aligned at 120° from each other with a highly reflective measurement chamber design. This provide optimal measurement geometry and maximises light collection. Its lead shield design provides good shielding, minimizes instrument weight, and reduces background effects.

  • TDCR technology: Absolute activity counting using triple-to-double coincidence ratio (TDCR) method. It also supports using an external standard method.

  • Temperature stabilization: It supports measurement at a controlled temperature optimal for the scintillation cocktails used.
