GOLDEN ENGINEERING XRS4 PULSED X-RAY GENERATOR

Golden Engineering has recently released the XRS-4 light duty pulsed-ray machine. Pulsed X-rays generate a high intensity X-ray energy burst (pulse) in 15 nano seconds.

Description

Golden Engineering has recently released the XRS-4 light duty pulsed-ray machine. Pulsed X-rays generate a high intensity X-ray energy burst (pulse) in 15 nano seconds. The output dose of each pulse is approximately 5 mR measured 30 cms in front of the X-ray machine. Maximum penetration is close to 50 mm of steel using a digital imaging system. Pulsed X-ray technology has inherent advantages for field operation compared to conventional constant potential X-ray machines or radioactive sources.

Highly Portable:

  • Extremely small PORTABLE unit with significant penetrating capability.
  • Pulsed technology generates high energy output voltage using minimal input voltage.
  • Features DeWalt® battery pack, electronic control module, and high voltage tube in a single package design.

 Cost Effective:

  • Costs less than alternative technologies.
  • Minimal regulative costs compared to a radioactive source.
  • Significant savings in time and labour.

Convenient:

  • Simple user interface with variable pulse setting.
  • Compatible with CR, DR digital imaging and high speed film using a fluorescent screen.
  • Easily attaches to a tripod or custom fixture.

Safe:

  • Can be operated during normal business hours without evacuating an entire facility.
  • Minimal side and rear leakage means operator stand-off distance is 20 feet behind the unit.
  • Contains no hazardous material, making transportation hassle-free.
