XM15

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document provides technical specifications for the XM15 rotating anode X-ray tube, specifically designed for diagnostic procedures in mammography.

Focal Spots: The X-ray tube features focal spots of 0.1 mm and 0.3 mm, which are critical for image resolution in mammography.

Input Powers: The tube operates at different input power levels depending on the speed: 1.15 kW at low speed and 2 kW at high speed, with maximums of 4.8 kW and 9 kW respectively.

Iae Housings: The document lists various housing options compatible with the tube, including C339 E, C339 C, C339 V, and C340 V, with different socket configurations for high voltage (HV) and low voltage (LV).

Max Emission Current: The tube can handle a maximum emission current of 35 mA at 25 kV and 140 mA at 25 kV.

Specifications: Key specifications include a nominal X-ray tube voltage of 40 kV, an anode angle of 15°, an anode diameter of 80 mm, maximum anode dissipation of 500 W, and anode heat storage capacity of 225 kJ.

Rotating Anode Speed: The anode rotates at speeds ranging from 3000 to 10000 rpm, which is essential for heat management and image quality.

Characteristics: The tube features a metal center section and a molybdenum-doped target, designed to reduce thermal stress on the bearings, thereby extending the tube's life. It undergoes rigorous testing to ensure optimal performance.

Applications: The XM15 is suitable for medium-duty and high-end applications, including CT scanners and mammography.
