P 211 Neutron Generator

  P 211 Neutron Generator



This generator assures that no neutrons are produced between pulses, which is critical for applications measuring neutron die away from the neutron burst, such as assay of fissile materials in the waste. Using a neutron tube originally designed by Sandia, we are now the only manufacturer of the "Zetatron" neutron tube.
   Product Detail


 The P 211 is designed such that both the accelerating voltage and ion source are pulsed.  This assures that no neutrons are produced between pulses.  This feature is critical for applications that depend upon measurement of variations of neutron populations following the source burst.  One such application is assay of transuranic materials in waste.

The P 211 was originally designed by Sandia National Laboratories and incorporates the Sandia designed Zetatron neutron tube.  Thermo is now the only manufacturer of the Zetatron neutron tube. Thermo supplies P 211 neutron generators as well as Zetatron neutron tubes to Sandia and other government and private users.
