Description
We have a comprehensive range of voltage dividers available for all photomultipliers. The various options are shown on the respective photomultiplier data sheets.
The dividers can be supplied attached to a socket, with or without cables and connectors, encapsulated within a shell with leads and connectors, or within a metal case with fixed connectors. The standard version is the linear resistive type, but for applications where linearity is important, a tapered version can also be supplied.
We are also able to design and supply special dividers for our products, as well as competitor photomultiplier tubes. Please contact us for more information.
Voltage dividers can be supplied for positive or negative polarity. Options on voltage dividers and ordering information are shown below.
