The BPM16-38 is a drop-in style beam position monitoring ionization chamber. The pneumatic locking design works with fixed or gantry mounted beamlines at any angle.

16x16 strip electrodes with 2.5mm pitch give a quick but accurate projection of your beam. 6mm gap with 38x38mm active area. Compatible with protons, deuterons, helium, and carbon from 30 to 500 MeV.

The completely standard vacuum pipe flanges make it easy to drop into existing or new designs.
