The Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory of the Geological Survey of Canada routinely operates two proportional counters; one 2 L and one 5 L. The 2 L counter is operated entirely at 2 atm. and the 5 L counter mainly at 1 atm. On occasion the 5 L counter is operated at 4 atm. Detailed descriptions of these two counters have recently been published (Dyck, 1967a). A I L counter has been fabricated and is now undergoing preliminary testing.
