Increasing the total collision energy and cumulative luminosity in particle accelerators enhances the importance of R&D efforts toward new detector systems resilient to higher radiation levels. In this context, the production of secondary emission ionization calorimeters (SE) resistant to high-radiation environments in clean-room facilities aims to develop, test, and analyze SE modules. This study focuses on the development, testing, and analysis of SE modules designed to replace traditional Hamamatsu R7761 Photomultiplier Tubes (PMTs) with more radiation-resistant alternatives. These modules replace traditional Hamamatsu single-anode R7761 Photomultiplier Tubes (PMTs). Specifically, three different voltage configurations integrating Gadolinium (Gd)-coated glass have been developed for each module, followed by comprehensive testing using cosmic, neutron, beta, and gamma radiation sources. Results indicate the functionality of all three modules and their sensitivity to neutron radiation. This study discusses the technical design, testing characteristics, and Gamma, Neutron, Beta, and cosmic radiation interaction results of the newly developed SE modules.
