    Description

    High sensitivity Helium-3 (
    3
    He) neutron detector SNM-56 (СНМ-56), proportional counter tube.
    This detector is sensitive to thermal neutrons and is an excellent choice for Fusor enthusiasts.
    This detector will work both in proportional and corona modes (depending on bias voltage).
    This is a spectroscopy-grade detector - see the attached thermal neutron spectrum.

    Advice
    Avoid frustration, wasted money and painful learning curve - buy a
    complete turn-key neutron counting and monitoring system
    that comes with multi-channel analyzer, high-voltage power supply, this neutron detector, all cables and PC software!
    Sensitivity
    ~300 CPM using 1 mCi Po-Be neutron source (moderated)
    Background ~3 CPM.
    Moderator
    For best results surround the detector with 3 inches of HDPE moderator on all sides.
    Connectivity
    Use 100 pF capacitor and for HV bias voltage filtering and 10 MOhm resistor for HV bias load.
