Hidex 300SL LSC
The Hidex 300 SL has a modern and compact design measuring half the size and weight of some of its long standing rivals. It is therefore much easier to install and fit it into smaller, more space conscious laboratories, such as transporting in research vessels or mobile labs.
Key Features
TDCR Technology
Uses triple-to-double coincidence ratio (TDCR) counting with three PMTs for absolute counting efficiency without external standards. It’s versatile for both chemical and color quenching across various samples and effective for beta isotopes and Cherenkov radiation.
Luminescence-Free Counting
Operates in triple coincidence mode, eliminating chemiluminescence interference and allowing immediate counting of samples like 14C without dark adaptation.
High Efficiency
With PMTs aligned at 120°, it provides superior detection geometry, especially under high quenching.
Efficiency Example for H-3 (20 ml Vials):
Unquenched: >70%
H-3 in water: >35%
High quench: 10%
Alpha/Beta Separation
Advanced separation capability allows sensitive alpha detection in high beta environments, reducing misclassification errors.
User-Friendly Software
Operated via MikroWin 300 SL software on Windows 10+, featuring an intuitive interface, multi-user support, and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance.
