GE’s Reuter Stokes business is introducing the B10Plus+* line of neutron detectors. B10Plus+*is a Boron-10 proportional counter that is filled with a small amount of Helium-3 gas. The Helium-3 functions as a proportional gas while providing additional neutron sensitivity. GE’s B10Plus+* detector line provides enhanced neutron sensitivity over standard Boron-10 proportional counters for applications where additional sensitivity is needed. B10Plus+* makes efficient use of the limited remaining Helium-3 in systems where proportional counters are needed. B10Plus+* offers: • Improved neutron sensitivity over Boron-10 proportional counters (varies based on amount of Helium-3) • Gamma discrimination comparable to existing Helium-3 detectors • All the performance benefits of proportional counter technology • Custom designs for various applications including international safeguards and homeland security • A safe hazard free detector for easy use and transport With its legacy dating back to 1956, GE’s Reuter Stokes business has designed and developed an impressive collection of neutron detectors. With over 100,000 detectors in service in a variety of neutron sensing systems around the world, Reuter Stokes detectors are among the most proven and well known in the industry. Reuter Stokes Neutron Detectors GE’s Reuter Stokes business will continue to manufacture its standard line of Boron-10 detectors for reactor control, spent fuel measurement and as a replacement neutron detector for use in existing Helium-3 based systems.
