Resumo

This instrument comprises an X-ray detector and built-in preamplifier. It is easily demountable, giving ready access to the anode wire and electronic components, and has a window assembly which permits thin plastic windows to be mounted in a convenient manner. The anode wire is held in a simple novel arrangement, which allows it to be replaced easily. The instrument operates efficiently inside a vacuum, and its compact dimensions make it especially attractive for use within an X-ray spectrometer.
