NIR-PMT MODULE
(Thermoelectrically cooled)
H9170-45, -75
PRELIMINARY
OVER VIEW
Hamamatsu has developed a highly sensitive semi-
transparent NIR photocathode by the novel photoca-
thode technology.
We have adopted this technology to a compact photo-
multiplier tube (PMT) and have developed a PMT mod-
ule with the air cooled TE cooler and high voltage
power supply with protection circuit. No liquid nitrogen
or cooling water is necessary. The cooling unit is equip-
ped with a condensor lens that allows large input area
for easy optical coupling. Adaptors for optical fiber or
monochromator are available as an option.
FEATURES
Wavelength Range: 950 nm to 1400 nm / 950 nm to 1700 nm,
TE cooled, High Speed, Suitable for Photon counting
