Description

Get reliable performance verification of your radiation detection equipment without the inconsistencies of conventional check sources. From beta contamination probes through gamma scintillators to high resolution detectors, Thermo Scientific™ Lutetium Test Adapters provide reliable results without half life correction, transport or decay/disposal issues. These innovative test adapters use high-purity natural lutetium oxide to produce a totally constant and homogeneous surface emission rate with well-defined, reproducible results, regardless of variances in the lutetium-oxide ceramics.

Lutetium Test Adapters offer unique advantages. The rare earth element lutetium contains the isotope Lu-176 with 3.6 E10 years half-life and a natural abundance of 2.6% which yields a highly reproducible and uniform activity of the pure element lutetium of about 50 Bq/g.

  • There is no need for error-prone half-life correction or for reoccurring purchase of the (decayed) check sources.
  • All test adapters of the same type have virtually the same activity.
  • Beta-type adapters provide nearly identical surface emission rates.
  • The design of specially shaped enclosures and high-density Lu2O3 ceramics minimizes the required activity for small-size detectors.


Lutetium Test Adapters are available in a variety of sizes for use with various radiation measurement instruments:

Beta/Gamma Test Adapters
