Specification:
  • Adjustable "C" arm configuration with an adjustable 12" to 24" access and a 15" throat dimension.
  • Computer  based control module and a 10 meter interconnect cable.
  • Operating range is 20 to 75 kV, adjustable in 1 kV increments and 10 to 300 microA increments.
  • The micron focus x-ray tube has a spot size of 100 microns.
  • A diode laser pointer is provided for determination of x-ray beam location.
  • The "X-RAY ON" alarm system is both a visual pulsed light and an pulsed audible alarm located on the "C" arm and the control console for safety. There are two buttons, of which the first activates the high frequency HV power supply to the armed state if all interlocks are ready, the second is the "X-RAY ON" button which when depressed allows x-rays to generate and stops x-rays when released which also freeze frames the last image
