Model 44-10 Gamma Scintillator Introduction The Model 44-10 sodium iodide (NaI) gamma scintillator is primarily used for detecting high-energy gamma radiation in the range of 60 keV to 2 MeV. It consists of a 5.1 x 5.1 cm (2 x 2 in.) diameter by thickness NaI crystal coupled to a photomultiplier tube and is housed in a 0.16 cm (0.062 in.) thick aluminum housing.
If more than one detector is in the carton, refer to the calibration certificate(s) for serial number (S/N) match. The Model 44-10 S/N is located on the side of the detector near the connector.
