The detector is intended for the detection of particulate and electromagnetic radiation as a part of scientific and industrial equipment.
The detector consists of a chevron stack of two MCPs, anode and ceramic-to-metal fittings.
Its operating principle relies on the detection and amplification of the primary flux of charged particles.
The detector can be vacuum heated at 300°C. The detector can be operated in any position.
