PHOTOSENSOR MODULE WITH THERMOELECTRIC COOLER
H7844
Reduces dark current to 1/50 that at room temperature after only 3 minutes of cooling
The H7844 is a photosensor module consisting of a newly developed high sensitivity side-on photomultiplier tube, a high-voltage power supply circuit and a thermoelectric cooler. Cooling is super-efficient in the H7844 because the thermoelectric cooler is directly coupled to the photocathode of the photomultiplier tube. This also drastically reduces thermal noise (thermal electrons) emitted from the photocathode to allow making accurate measurements with a high signal to noise ratio even at very low light levels. As a result of cooling, dark current reduces down to 1/50 at room temperature after only 3 minutes of cooling. Besides shorter cooling time and lower power consumption compared to conventional methods that cool the entire photomultiplier tube, the H7844 completely eliminates the problem of condensation during cooling.

(This output is not used.) • Low voltage input can also be used to supply the power to the cooling fan. In this case, the low voltage input must be set to +12 V. • Always run the cooling fan while the thermoelectric cooler is operating.
