The Model 580-006-WP Radiation Therapy Ionization Chamber is modeled after the traditional 0.6 cm3 Farmer-type chamber used for absolute dosimetry measurements of medical linear accelerators and 6 0Co machines. Each chamber includes an energy response for M-80, M-100, M-250, and 6 0Co for both linear accelerator and brachytherapy applications as illustrated in the table below. Also supplied with each chamber is a PMMA 6 0Co buildup cap, a convenient low noise one meter cable with triaxial BNC connector and a Victoreen custom carrying case.
Applications
This chamber is equivalent to a 0.6 cm3 acrylic walled chamber with the following published values of kQ for accelerator photon beams as a function of ?(10)x for cylindrical ion chambers commonly used for clinical reference dosimetry.
Features
Completely waterproof, does not require protective sleeve
Pure aluminum electrode 1 mm in diameter, 20.0 mm long
