Highly reliable 3He gas detectors are most often used in neutron scattering experiments but have disadvantages such as low count rates and low position resolutions. In this study, a 3He gas detector system called NEUNET-HCR was developed, whose count rate is approximately 10 times that of the current NEUNET system, which was developed for a high position resolution with a low count rate. NEUNET-HCR achieved a maximum count rate of 535 kcps per detector, with a loss of approximately 30%. As the NEUNET-HCR system was developed based on the NEUNET system, various improvements were required to achieve the high count rate. Further, a high count rate was achieved in the NEUNET-HCR system without significantly degrading the position resolution.
