[time-nuts] OT: Need datasheets on photomultiplier tubes

The Photonis site is one of those flashy-looking places where you can 
only find useful information if someone has already told you where it 
is. No functional search or guide pages that I could detect.

This site has a useful big list with some simple descriptions, but 
thanks to Photonis, many links to Photonis pages get 404...
http://www.lastek.com.au/content/view/179/1051/

On the Photonis pages, most of the docs are found in...
http://www.photonis.com/upload/industryscience/pdf/pmt/

But its contents can't be viewed. Put pdf names (listed below) at the 
end of the above for the full link.

Basic catalogs for different Photonis sizes...
Product_25-29-39.pdf
Product_51-60.pdf
Product_76-90-130.pdf

 From that, I was able to guess that sticking a B on the end of some 
Lastek broken link names might work and found...
XP3312B.pdf
XP3212B.pdf
XP5312B.pdf

I couldn't find XP5212 but looking at the Lastek page, it may be similar 
to 5292 which I found as...
XP5292B.pdf
