The payload instrumentation consisted of a bank of six berylium window proportional counters, sensitive to the energy ran 1.5-1k keV with 900sq cm total open area. Four of the detectors were placed behind a 13 deg x 17 deg FWHM collimator and the other two behind a 10 deg x 20 deg FWHM collimator. The collimators were co-aligned. Ref [2]
