A Packard low-level liquid scintillation counting system is described which provides superior low-background beta-counting capability for3H and14C. The design is based on a novel pulse-discrimination circuit that separates background from valid scintillation pulses. Background discrimination is further enhanced by adding a plastic vial holder that acts as an anticoincidence guard. When excited by background radiation, the scintillation properties of the plastic provide an increased burst of photons to the detection electronics, which discriminate based on the number of component pulses in the burst. Experimental data demonstrate the low-level counting capabilities of this counter.

The Low Level Counting Laboratory of Packard Instrument Company was organized and began operations in the fall of 1963 with the development and construction of the Packard Tri-carb® Benzene Synthesizer. This instrument is designed to consolidate into a small area (6 ft × 8 ft) the equipment necessary to quickly and efficiently convert carbon-containing material or tritium water samples into benzene—an ideal solvent for liquid scintillation counting.
