Voltage Dividers and Voltage Divider/Preamps

The P-12 and P-14 voltage dividers and PA-12 and PA-14 preamps featured in this catalog are easy to use. We make them with sockets that match the connecting pin patterns found on the various photomultiplier tube bases. You simply push them onto the PMT base’s connecting pins. A keyway helps you line them up so that the proper connections can be made.

Use the P-12 or PA-12 with 1.5" diameter PMTs which have a 12-pin base. 2" through 5" diameter PMTs have a 14-pin base, so use a P-14 or PA-14 with them.

Standard features of these plug-on voltage dividers and preamps include:

  • A chrome-plated housing
  • Positive (+) high voltage operation
  • BNC bulkhead connector for signal
  • SHV connector for high voltage supply
  • Gain and Focus trimpots

The PA-12 and PA-14 also include a hard-wired cable terminating in a 9-pin Amphenol connector for the preamps.
