Servicing the Detector
The ion-chamber detector contains pressurized inert gas. The ion
chamber itself is not serviceable and must be returned to the
factory for service. Instructions follow for “Detector
Removal/Replacement.”
However, a qualified technician can troubleshoot and service the
detector’s amplifier assembly. Instructions follow for that
procedure as well. Some precautions are needed when handling
the detector/amplifier assembly.
It is important to keep the interior of the detector/amplifier dry.
Moisture on the high-impedance components will cause leakage
currents. If the amplifier lid is opened, it is important to see that
warm, dry air is introduced into the amplifier before replacing
the gasket lid.
