 WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE
The H6779/H6780 series are new light sensor mod-
ules including the compact photomultiplier tube, 
(METAL PACKAGE PMT) and operating power 
supply. It features low voltage operation (+15 V) 
and low power consumption (Approx. 450 mW for 
H6779/H6780). Compared with current light sen-
sors, it has several advantages like high sensitivity, 
wide dynamic range and fast time response. These 
are featured by the PMT and the Cockcroft-Walton 
high voltage power supply. The H5773/H6779 ser-
ies are on-board types which facilitates mounting 
directly on a printed circuit board and the 
H5783/H6780 series have a cable output. H5784 
series are cable out type with an amplifier of DC to 
20 kHz bandwidth. These versions accept direct 
light input or an optical fiber with the optional fiber 
connector of E5776.

 The metal package photomultiplier tubes are operated by applying a high voltage. Use extreme caution 
to avoid electrical shock and damage to the peripheral equipment and be sure to provide adequate safety 
measures as needed. As safety measures, an insulation cover is fitted to the metal package which is 
electrically connected to the photocathode. When operated with the cathode at a high voltage (anode 
ground scheme), the metal package will be at this same high voltage level. Removing the insulation 
cover is extremely dangerous, so never attempt to remove it from the package.
