Zusammenfassung:	The description and technical characteristics of the gamma-spectrometer installation for the detection of cosmic rays, as designed at the Dolgoprudny scientific station of the Lebedev Physical Institute in cooperation with the Mackenzie University (Sao Paulo, Brazil), are presented. This installation has operated continuously in the CASLEO astronomical complex since 2015. The detector modules of the setup are based on the NaJ (Tl) scintillator, which is 76.2 mm × 76.2 mm high, a Hamamatsu R1307 photomultiplier tube, a high voltage power supply, and a preamplifier. The technique of the experimental calibration of the spectrometer is also presented.
