Download Datasheet

Engineered to detect and measure pulsed X-rays

The PXRD is specifically engineered to detect and measure pulsed X-rays emitted by portable X-ray generators such as Golden Engineering’s XR150, XR200, and XRS3, as well as other compatible models.

Compact and handheld, the PXRD is designed for durability and performance in the toughest environments. Its rugged construction ensures reliable operation in all weather conditions and demanding field applications.

Unlike conventional detectors, the PXRD can measure X-ray radiation from pulsed sources with a minimum pulse width of 25 ns. This makes it uniquely suited to applications where pulsed X-ray sources are in use.
