ERESCO 52 MF4-CL
Portable X-ray Unit, Panoramic Tube Head 300 kV, air cooled
The ERESCO 52 MF4-CL is a 300 kV con-
stant potential portable X-ray tube
head using state of the art switching
technology with high radiation output
allowing shortest exposure times there-
by increasing productivity.
GE Sensing & Inspection Technologies
uses the number 52 to identify the superi-
or penetration performance of its portable
X-ray unit line. This means the ERESCO 52
MF4-CL is capable of penetrating 52 mm
(2.01”) Fe with a 2.0 density after a ten-
minute exposure using AGFA STRUCTURIX
D7 lm @ 700 mm (27.5”) FFD.
The X-ray tube head consists of a sturdy
metal-ceramic X-ray tube and high volt-
age generator integrated into a rugged
compact housing. The air-cooled 300 KV/
600 W end-grounded X-ray tube is ther-
mally protected for extended life.
The high voltage generator generates
high-stability constant potential volt-
age at higher efciency than conven-
tional line frequency equipment.
The performance of the X-ray tube and
the high voltage generator is continu-
ously monitored for protection and op-
erational safety. An on-board real time
clock facilitates fully automatic warm-
up routines for optimized and time-
saving tube conditioning. The exible
connecting cable is heavy-duty and
light weight.
