Geiger Muller Tube Holder
Product Code : JA-APE-7289
The Geiger Muller Tube Holder (SKU JA-APE-7289) is an aluminium housing that holds a GM tube and connects it to a scaler timer for radioactivity measurements. A 2.2 megohm stabilising resistor is wired inside in series with the anode connection, and the holder connects through a 1 m coaxial lead ending in a standard P.E.T. connector. This Geiger Muller tube holder is designed for use with a scaler timer in school and college nuclear physics practicals.
Specifications
The holder is an aluminium box of 58 x 33 mm (diameter x depth) housing the GM tube socket, with a 2.2 megohm stabilising resistor in series with the anode and a 1 m coaxial lead terminated in a P.E.T. connector.

Applications of the Geiger Muller tube holder
The holder mounts the GM tube securely at a fixed position and provides the anode resistor and screened lead needed to run it from a scaler timer, so count-rate measurements can be repeated with the tube held steady.
- Mounting a GM tube for background and source count measurements
- Absorption experiments with alpha, beta and gamma sources
- Inverse-square law measurements at set source distances
- Half-life experiments with a protactinium generator
- Radioactivity practicals in senior-secondary, B.Sc and M.Sc physics
