CT Chamber PTW 30017.

The CT chamber is a vented cylinder chamber designed for dose length product and dose length product rate measurements in computed tomography according to the amendment to IEC 60601-2-44.

• Pencil type chamber for measurements free in air

• Provides a sensitive measuring length of 30 cm

• Shows a homogeneous response over the whole chamber length
