ORTEC makes no other warranties express or implied and specifically NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

ORTEC’s exclusive liability for breach of the foregoing warranty is limited to repairing or replacing, at ORTEC’s  option, defective items returned at Buyer’s expense within the following warranty periods:
 
A Series one year
B Series one year
C Series one year
D Series (>25 µm thick) one year
D Series (£25 µm thick) three months
F Series three months
L Series one year
P Series one year
R Series one year
ULTRA/ULTRA CAM/ULTRA-AS one year

 

In the event Charged-Particle Detectors have been subject to mishandling, abuse, radiation damage, or the failure to adhere to the use and handling precautions contained in the manual furnished with the detector, no warranty coverage will be afforded.

ORTEC’s liability on any claim of any kind, including negligence, for loss or damages arising out of, connected with, or resulting from this agreement, or from the performance or breach thereof, or from the manufacture, sale, delivery, resale, repair, or use of any item or services covered by or furnished under any agreement shall in no case exceed the price allocable to the item or service or part thereof which gives rise to the claim.

IN NO EVENT SHALL ORTEC BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

ORDERING INFORMATION

To order the detector most suitable for your particular needs, select the model number of the detector desired and add the appropriate letter prefix for the mounting desired. The model numbers for all series of detectors consist of four components: the letter indicates the series; the first three digits indicate:

1. The maximum room-temperature alpha resolution in keV FWHM for the Series A, B, C, L, P, R, ULTRA, ULTRA CAM, and ULTRA-AS.

2. The maximum total system noise width in keV FWHM for the D and F Series Detectors.

The next group of digits indicates the minimum active area in mm2 . Note that:

1. The area indicated for the C Series includes the 4-mm-diameter hole.

2. In the P Series, this group contains four digits that are the width and the length of the rectangular active region. The last three digits indicate the depletion depth.

Example: BU-012-100-300 is an ULTRA Partially Depleted detector in a B Mount with a rear Microdot connector with:

• <12 keV alpha resolution
• 100-mm2 active area
• ³300-µm depletion depth.

This sample detector would be shipped with a standard rear Microdot connector (B Mount). If a rear BNC connector (C Mount) were desired, the model number should be designated:

CU-012-100-300.
