CFD pulses. • Use any digital counter or time resolved measurement device (e.g. the Surface Concept 4 Channel Counter or the Surface Concept Time-to-Digital Converter) for pulse recognition/ counting and/ or time resolved measurements.Connect any HV Supply to the 3 SHV feedthroughs of the CEM base flange.
CEM 4230 Detector Setup Manual 4 Operation of the CEM 4.1 “Start Up“ Procedure for First Time Operation Mistakes, which lead to wrong measurement results or damage the CEM can happen very easily while taking the system into operation. Therefore it is strongly advised to read the following sections completely beforehand and to strictly follow all advices given.
Use this procedure later on for all operations when the detector has already been operated in vacuum before and has not been vented in between. • Connect the CEM 4230 Detector Setup as described in chapter 3. • Be sure that the vacuum pressure at the detector is below the specified maximum operating pressure.
This should be considered when setting the applied voltage and the discriminator threshold. 5.2 Replacement Contact SURFACE CONCEPT before performing a replacement. Note Please contact Surface Concept before performing replacement of any parts. We will provide you with a detailed step by step description.
