Counting Laboratory Solutions

Nuclear power plants, environmental laboratories, nuclear research or education.  ORTEC has a solution to meet your needs. We provide complete turn-key counting systems for alpha, beta, and gamma counting for radiochemistry, health physics, and environmental monitoring applications.  ORTEC specializes in High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detectors, Silicon barrier detectors, analog and digital electronics, and analytical software for nuclear measurements.

Many facilities throughout the world have standardized on ORTEC because of our equipment’s superior capabilities, performance, and ease of operation, as well as our commitment to customer support.  ORTEC continues to be a pioneer in the industry with many instrumentation and software innovations, such as:

• Multi Channel Analyzer systems with MCA emulation software.
• Digital spectrometers - for high performance HPGe gamma spectroscopy (DSPec).
• The first fully integrated alpha spectrometer (OCTETE).
• 32-bit Windows spectroscopy analysis software (GammaVision).
• Global Value Software - Productivity enhancing software for gamma spectrometry systems in the counting room.
• The first practical Electrical Cooler for routine laboratory use (X-COOLER).
• The first N-type High Purity Germanium detectors for wide energy range, energy photon counting (GAMMA-X)
• The Profile Series HPGe detectors providing application matched crystal geometry for optimum measurement sensitivity.

The CONNECTIONS-32 networking architecture underpins all ORTEC spectroscopy hardware and software. Defined and open file structures and communications protocols in an industry standard PC environment provides seamless integration of ALL ORTEC hardware into the current applications software environment, regardless of the age of the hardware product or its interface requirements: Serial, USB, Ethernet, Printer Port, and ORTEC Dual Port Memory are all supported, even on ORTEC hardware products over 20 years old!

For non-ORTEC manufactured hardware, the MatchMaker often provides a simple migration path.
