Prior to usage, season the tube in accordance with the seasoning schedule given below until
the required tube voltage is attained. Example given – needs to revise by the manufacturer
and specified in the data sheet of the part:
Initial incoming seasoning and seasoning schedule for idle period (more than 6 months)
Circuit: DC (Monopolar)
Tube Voltage [kV] Tube Current [mA] Exp. Time [s] Interval Time [s]
30 0.2 120 10
40 0.2 120 10
50 0.2 120 10
When the tube current is unstable in seasoning, immediately switch off the tube voltage and
after an interval of 5 minutes or more, increase the tube voltage gradually from the low voltage
while making sure that the tube current is stable.
The withstand voltage performance of the tube unit will be lowered as the exposure time and
the number of operation increase. Stain-like impact traces might appear on the x-ray tube
target surface by slight discharge in the course of the seasoning. These phenomena are one
process to recover the withstanding voltage performance at that time.
Cautions!!!
X-ray tube will emit X–ray when it is energized with high voltage, Special knowledge should be
required and cautions need to be taken when handling it.
1. Only a qualified specialist with X-Ray tube knowledge should assemble, maintain and remove
the tube. When mounting tube inserts adopt proper caution, in order to avoid glass bulb breaking
and fragments projection. Please use protective gloves and glasses.
2. Tube insert connected to H.V. supply is a radiation source: be sure to take all necessary safety
cautions.
3. Wash thoroughly with alcohol the external surface of tube insert (care of fire risk). Avoid contact
of dirty surfaces with cleaned tube insert.
4. Clamp system inside housing or self-contained units must not mechanically stress the tube.
5. After installation, check the right working of the tube (no fluctuation of tube current nor
crackling).
6. Comply with insert thermal parameters, planning and programming the exposure parameters
and cooling pauses. Housing or self-contained units must be provided with an adequate thermic
protection.
7. Voltages indicated in charts are valid for transformer supplied with ground center.
8. It is extremely important to observe the connection diagram and the grid resistor value. Any
change could modify the dimensions of the focal spot, also varying diagnostic performances or
overloading anode target.
9. Tube inserts contain environment polluting materials, particularly lead liner tubes. Please apply
to qualified operator for waste disposal, according to local regulation requirements.
10. When any abnormalities are found during operation, immediately switch off the power supply
and contact the service engineer.
